Knitted this for hubby

That's gorgeous, you're very talented. I did a lot of knitting when I was first married 43 years ago, DH still has a jumper I knotted then. I haven't dine any fir ages, I don't think I'd have the patience now!

Thank you pascal30.

Love it. The colours are gorgeous.

Many years ago everyone in the office I worked took up knitting Icelandic sweaters that were knitted on round pins. I almost completed my sweater, only had the last few rows of the neckline to finish, I put it to one side as we were moving house and once in our new home I asked DH if he’d seen the silver bag with my knitting in it. He looked shocked and confessed he’d taken it to the dump with some boxes. I’ve never let him forget it😂

Really beautiful colours. I love it. But - sorry, I HATE the word 'hubby'. It's just too cringe-worthy!

LOVELY. It looks very much like the ones I knitted for my son and his partner.
I have knitted since childhood.
Have given up knitting for my husband as he never wears any of it! He just wears those awful black gilet things made out of some slidy synthetic stuff that creates static! and then complains about it.

Beautiful sweaters! I wish I had the patience to knit and crochet. I am a quilter and card creator.

Beautiful jumpers, well done ladies. I’m knitting a Simon Shawl (more of a scarf) at the moment but knit a lot of socks for DH and myself. Have to keep my hands busy while I’m watching telly!

Looks lovely. Much needed in this weather too

Lovely projects.

Here's why I knit (attached pic). Plus it keeps me sane

I'm not sure about sane
Sometimes there's a bit of 🤬 when I'm 'frogging' some crochet or muttering when I'm counting.

Sorry, for some reason my photos won't upload

For my dad

Bluebelle -Have you looked at Youtube. There's some great video tutorials on there. Helped me with my crochet no end. Here are some of my recent makes

Love that jumper. Beautifully knitted. X

Try loom knitting. I can't get my head around knitting needles, but I can loom knit, also it's a lot kinder on finger/ joints.

Very nice, whywhywhy!

Lovely Jumper

Thats really lovely - so even .

I love that! What is the yarn you used, if you don’t mind sharing?

Well done whywhywhy and Harris27. I like both colour choices.

I'm currently working on a pullover for my DD. I really had to look hard to find a pattern for drop shoulder instead of raglan sleeve. I haven't knit an adult sweater for quite a few years, and this one is plain stockinette stitch, so not too challenging.

I love to see other's finished projects.

I adore knitting, it's my one relaxing hobby, and I'm pretty decent at it. But when fairly newly married I knitted DH and I matching Aran sweaters, quite complicated. They were beautiful. DH tried his on (it fitted perfectly) and asked how much they had cost me, so I told him (not cheap of course). His reply was NOT "Thank you darling, it is beautiful" but "You could have gone one at half the price from XYZ". I unravelled it at once and threw it at him. I never knitted anything else for him.

When my DD was little I knitted a big cat for her. She loved it to bits but it wore into holes cos she pulled bits of wool off it, curled it in her finger and tickled her nose with it. Eventually her darling teddy bear had become threadbare so I used the "cat wool" to make him a jacket and hat. She is nearly 45 and still has the teddy and still curls the wool in her finger and tickles her nose. I'll have to knit him a new jacket!!!

Fantastic jumper-lucky hubby !

That is lovely. I want one!
I can't knit to save my life though.

Yes! I want one too! It's a fabulous jumper whywhywhy.
Lucky Husband. 😊❤👍

You both knit beautifully!
I enjoy it but I'm not as neat as either of you.

Thank you all so much for your kind words. Knitting really does keep me sane because I battle depression on a daily basis. Thank you.
