Michael's Jumper

Michael's jumper is finished.  I'm so happy with how it's turned out but I fear the jumper will be too big for him.  Michael doesn't like tight-fitting clothes so I decided to make the jumper medium sized but ...  My own silly fault as I should have measured him first rather than keep it a surprise.  Anyway, I may see him on the weekend and then I'll know.


This photo shows the true colour.


The wool is Paton's Inca colour number 7036 and the pattern is from Paton's Inca pattern book number 1232.



This wool knits up beautifully and so quickly being 14 ply.

No machine sewing the last few weeks but I have managed a bit of secret stitching for a present that needs to be posted off soon.

Sydney weather made a liar out of me on the weekend - Friday and Sunday were such beautiful days, but we're back to the very chilly winter weather.

I've loved reading all the blog posts about visits to the Sydney Quilt Show.

Love the jumper Lynda. I hope it fits him. The pattern in it is really lovely. I admire anyone who knits so much... I struggle with it.
