Knit one, skip a year, purl one



I’ve picked up this basket of knitting again. Maybe this winter I will get this waistcoat finished. Only one side to do but don’t hold your breath will you


My friend has just finished knitting this cardigan for me.  I added the buttons from my stash and now it’s ready to wear.



Hope you all have a great crafty week over at

  6. Love that new cardigan that your friend knit for you; beautiful colours. My record for unfinished garments is a jumper that I started knitting on my last maternity leave and is still unfinished. As the 'baby' turned 18 last week i don't think it's going to get finished! Happy WOYWW Sarah #19

  7. Oooh, I LOVE the cardigan! I watch Scandinavian crime-series lately and some of the characters wear those lovely knitted sweaters and cardigans...makes my fingers itch to start knitting again - or maybe it's the time of year? Anyway, have fun, curl on the couch and knit! Happy woyww and a big hug from Holland, Marit #17

  11. I can do better than that Lynn, knit one, skip five years Lol! I have a cardigan half knitted using some gorgeous Kaffe Fassett yarns and it's at least five years since I started it but not sure it will ever get finished now. Have a great week and a happy woyww, Angela x11x
