Finished!

Here's Codys jumper as promised,


All four boys went out with Malc for an hour this morning so I had some rare time to myself so I was able to sew it up.
Eden only had an hour exam this morning so we picked her up late morning and went food shopping much to her delight!
I have started on Solomans jumper, same wool, same pattern, I'm going to have to put a label in with names on so they don't get them mixed up!
Lots of rain forecast overnight which means no watering with the watering can tonight which is always good.
Tomorrows agenda includes a dog walk in the forest hopefully!

      Of course I don't. This was a 30 inch chest, it took 300grms of wool. The wool is 100% acrylic and it was £ 4-99 for 200 grms, therefore the cost was approx £ 7-50.
      This was quite an expensive one for me to knit usually I buy double knitting at £1-30 a 100grm ball, which would make it £3-90, but because this was a marble effect it cost more. Well worth it I think!

      Thank you for your lovely words. The children have their moments like any but on the whole they're pretty good x

      Thanks Mitzi, it's pouring at the moment so it looks like it's going to be a very fast trot round the block!

    Love the jumper and that wool. It looks like a fisherman's sweater we bought years ago on holiday in Devon.

      Fisherman's rib does look really lovely when it's knitted up doesn't it?

      Thanks Karen. Cody's always happy, he's really cuddly too! I'm making the most of it as I'm sure it'll end (in public anyway!) one day x
