Please excuse the daggy selfie, but no time for blocking or photo shoots. I have some packing to do. :-)
What can I say? Even though I made the wrong size, the arms are a little wide, it still looks ok! Winifred..... I LOVE YOU!!! So comfy and yes I will make another in the right size before next winter. The measuring of the boobies went askew. The funny thing is I knew it at the time as I had measured a few days earlier but it went straight over my head. I mean really ones boobies don't grow 2 inches in a couple of days do they? Wishful thinking bahahahaha. I made extra decreases in the arms but they are still a bit baggy. Doesn't matter though. As I said, its comfy.
My mummy says I need to take a break from the knitting. She felt I took on way too much this month. She is probably right, however, one just does not take breaks from the knitting does one? Imagine not playing with yarn for a while. Oh dear!!!!
Excuse me while I go pack my crate for my holidays. I think I have narrowed it down to a crates worth anyway. :-)
Pattern: Winifred by Sezza Knits.
Yarn: Patons Dreamtime 8ply in Aqua. (I used 10 50g balls)
Happy Sunday lovelies. Have a beautiful day! Hugs xoxox
I love your jumper! I just put it on my favorites on ravelry. I wanted to try knit cables this looks like a great pattern to start with!
ReplyDeleteI've got 4 things on the go I had to have a break from socks which I enjoy knitting, I just needed to knit on bigger needles for the moment my partner has to wait a bit longer for me to finish the other sock ;)
Enjoy your hoilday!
I wish I could get out these cold mountains for a week or so sick of been cold!
I love the yarn you got on line on line shopping is dangerous!
I like Yarn.com they have good sales in April / May and Yarnbow.com I ve gotten Noro on sale from theses websites.
I do buy yarn from my local yarn shop too that's why I have a bit of sock yarn in my stash
I plan to make some socks next. Have packed the yarn for a couple of pairs though not sure if I will make more than one while away. I imagine its colder where you are, its been bad enough here. I could not live in a really cold place. I am already dreaming of retirement on a tropical island somewhere. LOL Don't really see that happening but maybe QLD. Its warmer up there. :-)
DeleteThis looks great on you. In the past I thought you were talking about a different pattern, LOL.
ReplyDeleteThank you. You were probably thinking of Little Winifred which I made in the tunic style. This one has the same options I just went for the jumper style this time.
