It's been a while since I showed you any knitting, even though I have been getting on with something. This is going to be a cardigan, at last!
Eighteen months ago it was going to be a sweater dress, and I managed to get about halfway up the body, didn't like the way it was going, and left it. Previously, it had been started as a cardigan and I didn't like that either!
So, this time it's going to get finished. And I am happy with the way it's going now, so let's hope that continues because I don't want to have to rip it back again.
I'm using handspun for this - the multicoloured yarn is 50% merino, 50% mohair, and the blue is just merino. I'm not a pretty sight whilst knitting this - because the mohair sheds and makes me cough, I have to wear a face mask, which is also hot and itchy. I'll be glad when it's finished!
