Buying and making

[slemslempike]

Oh, now I remember why I had to stop myself looking at ebay.

(Annual edition 1992, annual edition 1993, annual edition 1995 all bought; annual edition 1997 and a UK 1990s version being bid on. I went on to look for boots to wear to work.)

I have no knitting on the go, which is a little odd. I have just about finished seaming the baby jumper I made:




I have to find the buttons I bought and stitch them on, and then block it to send to New Zealand. I am quite pleased with it, though I am worried that as it's not all that well done the parents might feel obliged to put their daughter in it but not really want to.

I bought a bunch of wool in a charity shop, and I might try to make a sleeveless jumper. I have half the wool for the cardigan I want to make, but the other half got sent to my Lancaster address by mistake and I haven't yet recovered it.

Does this look like something that wouldn't be too difficult to teach myself the cables for? Or might it be worth buying this? I wouldn't do the embroidery. Or has anyone made a sleeveless jumper that they recommend that is not too tricky?

Thank you! Maybe I could just make myself a big one.

That looks pretty cool.
