I made this sweater for a christmas present

Beautiful jumper, lovely colour.

Beautiful colour. Hope the little boy loves it.

Thank you to everyone for your warm kind words.

I’m sure he’ll love it!

Anything hand crafted is a real treasure nowadays with fewer people doing them. It’s really super Purplepixie, love anything with cables, and a perfect time of year to receive a warm jumper.

Lucky little boy. It looks so cosy.

That looks lovely Purplepixie. I do like knitted necks that stand up a bit. Great colour.

It’s lovely Purplepixie, he will love it. Do you make all your own patterns up?,

It's really lovely .
Well done .
I wish that I could knit like you !

Its gorgeous blue hope he findsit comforting

Gorgeous colour - lucky little boy !

Thank you for all of your kind words. Sadly I am not qualified enough to make my own patterns. This pattern is : JB642 - James Brett.

Is there an issue with gransnet ... I'm unable to access any forums ?
Is I me or the gransnet site ?

My gransnet has been ok, so far.

I haven’t heard if the sweater fits as the little lad has been quite poorly over christmas and they are looking to get him to the drs today. Fingers crossed that he is ok because he doesn’t eat solid food yet at the age of nearly 5.

What a beautiful colour! He'll look very smart in that. Lovely pattern. Good for you.

That is gorgeous, well done you.

Oh Wow ! Cobalt blue - stunning sweater ..

It's lovely, Purplepixie. Your knitting is very neat, and the colour is great.

Thank you so much.

Beautiful jumper, purplepixie, I'm very fond of a cable pattern. I particularly like how you've done the raglan, very neat.
I do hope the wee boy recovers soon and enjoys wearing his cosy jumper.

What a beautiful sweater and how kind and sensitive of you to use his favourite colour. I hope he loved it and is feeling better now.

Beautiful jumper. It's one of my favourite colours. It looks like Royal Blue in the picture, though that could be the lighting .

Lovely jumper well done!

It’s royal blue. Infact it is the left over yarn from a sweater I knitted for a friend in Scotland.
Here is the said sweater.

Beautifully knitted. Well done 👍👍👍

Thank you but the little lad that the sweater is made for is currently in hospital and hope he is going to be ok. A virus that just will not go away.
