Hi Guys,

Here is a glimpse of the sweater I am working at present. Have just finished the back of this sweater and started on the front. It is a wedge shaped garment and hopefully won't be too small at the waist for me!!! This will be the first garment I have knitted for me for many years. Usually I have too many orders from friends etc. It is 8ply and knitted on 4mm needles, the yarn is from a small outlet in Victoria where I have been buying yarn for many years.

I really like it!  The wedge has an Art Deco flair to me.  Is the front the same?  This is going to be one beautiful jersey! 

Friends don't let friends knit drunk.

Hi Victor - I like this, it

Hi Victor - I like this, it looks really natty!  I'm really enthused with cable patterns that don't look as if taken straight from Craggy Island.  I'm well impressed!
