Knitted this little sweater

Thank you. I find it very therapeutic - it helps me pull myself away from the black dog days. Past life plus estrangement.

Lovely photos of jumpers .
Well done .
It's my dream to knit a twin set .
I'm always in awe of people who knit .
It isn't my forte .
I can sew , embroider and do my own designs in bead work .

When it comes to knitting - I find it really hard to concentrate .

Did I purl or plain it
? ,I ask myself .
So it's simple scarves and blankets .
Admittedly, I get a lot of interruptions -the phone , people ringing and knocking on the front door and my father wanting things ...

Today , one of my friends came round .
She thumped the hell out of the front door -waking up my father and actually frightening him .

I've politely asked her not to - after all - we're meeting for lunch on Friday .

Thank you.

Knitting is the only thing I can blow my own trumpet about, I’ve got a draw full of jumpers.

Purplepixie I think I’ll knit my granddaughter your pattern, nice and cosy.

Thank you Purplepixie. Are you starting something else now.
I pick up my knitting as soon as I sit down, plain when I'm reading or watching TV and patterned when I feel like concentrating on it which I enjoy more.

I’ve just started a cable hat for a friend for christmas and then I will be back to knitting dog blankets for Battersea cats/dogs home.

The pattern is James Brett JB642. Thank you.

So cute! and I love the button detail on your one.

Pixie beautiful work as always . Your are a very talented lady.

purplepixie, the cables look very cosy . I hope the wee man will feel nice and warm in it.

Lovely! I find knitting so relaxing - my dog has quite a few jumpers!

Lovely, I’m not practical and lack patience for something like this and really admire those who do.

LadyGracie - I love your sweater. It does look like the same wool.

Thank you to everyone for your kind words.

Yours is great too!

Sorry, my mistake.

Purple Pixie I was wondering about the little jumper!

Thank you. It’s a Sirdar Country Style DK pattern, no. 8435. I knitted it in Sirdar Escape wool rich DK. 51% wool 49% acrylic and yes it’s beautifully warm.

That looks so cosy!

I do like that. Will be really warm. Where did you find the pattern ?

LadyGracie...wow, yours is beautiful too.. such talent here ..

I like the pattern. Did you find it on line or have you designed it yourself?

That's beautiful...oh to have such a talent !!

What a lovely jumper, I've just finished this, very similar colours. I agree knitting does lift your spirits.

Looks lovely could knit another one please but a little bit bigger.

You are clever, it's such a lovely talent to have, well done.
You can't beat a home knitted jumper at any age.
