Sunday

buttoned up

She's finished, and I love it, the feels so nice on bare skin! I've been wearing it a lot even to bed (which is a true test to its wearability) I now know how Kate feels about her 'Technicolor Dream Cardi'. Thank you Fat Kitty for helping out with blocking the jumper!
I've not been so lucky with this jumper I think I 'll have to re-knit this again, which will make it the fourth time. First time it was to small, second it was a nice fit but I thought it would be better slightly bigger......which now it is, the arms are way too long!! What to do? I'm not sure now I even like the look of it on me it makes my boobs look really big(which has always been a fear of mine wearing knitted clothing). I could knit it up into a bag but I really wanted a nice big comfy jumper. I might just sew the arms on and wear it around a bit before making another rash move.

Oh, lovely cardi, I am not brave enough to wear a cardi to bed, I am worried about the buttons!! The sleevs, though long, look very interesting!!
