Test Knitting


For the last couple of weeks I have been test knitting a pattern for a book that the fabulous Marie Greene is putting together. This is my finished piece, modelled by my eleven year old. it's not often you can find a knitting pattern that a boy of that age actually likes, but he really likes this one, and I really enjoyed knitting it.

  2. He won't appreciate me saying this but isn't he sweet!! The jumper looks great, would be all lobsided and crooked stitching if I attempted it!

  3. It looks great Joanne, very trendy looking, would pay a lot of money for a jumper like that in a dept. store.

  5. Looks good, Joanne and ooh, it brings back (good) memories. I made most of my two sons' pullovers and thoroughly enjoyed doing so, trying all kinds of different patterns. Enjoy it while you can!
