Fantastic jumper. I aspire

Fantastic jumper. I aspire to one day be able to knit just like you. I fear though it is going to take years of knitting practice. Must get my camera out and take photos of the four basic things I have made to date. The last project is a bit of a disaster but you inspire me to persevere. Thanks for showing me your jumpers.

Thank you Albert. Scalloway

Thank you Albert. Scalloway was knitted in the round and Canyonville and Henry VII were both knit flat. Scalloway and Canyonville were both made using Starmore Scottish Heather in Rosewood and Sholmit on US 7/8. Henry was made using Starmore Bainin (US 7).
