I'm curious mum2one, what's a "test item"? Are you doing a course of sme kind?

mum2one

It's a Facebook group for a wool brand - when there doing new patterns / wool they ask for a item to be knit / crochet - just been luckily enough to get in first.

You don't get paid - for this jumper had 3 balls of wool given to me, sometimes they will send the item back to you, xx

Ah, that sounds interesting, mum2one. You've certainly had a variety of things to do.

Just found out today the lady that was expecting in Dec, she lost the baby, it was weird, as I was going into town today (mgr of one of the shops go in), I had made some blankets, so was going to pop one in for her, put it ready but 4got to pick it up...

Big phew....

This is the first pair I've knitted since primary school - and that was 1961! Enjoyed it; looking forward to doing some more. I think the variegated wool made all the difference.
