I finished this jumper this spring, but haven't gotten around to posting about it yet. I ended up using another template for the jumper than the one I first intended, as I found it hard to meet the gauge. I was afraid the jumper would end up too stiff if I used very fine needles, so I chose another pattern from one of my books, with the same basic shape, but a different gauge. In retrospect I realise that I could have tightened the gauge some, but I'm still pleased with the outcome.
On another note it's still raining cats and dogs here in Lillehammer. Before we moved here we were told that the summers would make up for the very cold and long winters. So far I'm not too impressed.
Wonderful! I love Miss Lemon's woolies so much and you did a great reproduction of this one.
ReplyDeleteThanks :) I only just finished the red jumper cardigan with the white bows she wears in several of the Poirot films, and will post about it here as soon as I get around to it.
DeleteI think this jumper is just so lovely.Just the sort of thing I like to wear so I am very envious!
ReplyDeleteThanks :) I'm very pleased with it. Wouldn't it be lovely if some kind soul decided to launch a series of reproductions of miss Lemon's lovely clothes?
