    Lovely jumpers, I particularly love the last grey one.
    I am knitting a scarf for dh, I hate scarves they are so boring but it's the first time he's asked for anything so must persevere ;)

    Thank you - colours aren't very true.
    Middle one is a green / brown mix and last one is Duck egg blue.

  • It is nice to see you posting, Cuddles. I have been following The Knitters Thread for a year or two, but all the familiar names seem to have disappeared. I love to see what people have created on two or more needles and I aspire to that as well, but not holding out much hope, however I keep plodding on!

    Lovely jumpers Cuddles I would love to do more for my DGS but they only have a few weeks of cold weather a year.

    I made some scarves in a similar pattern to the bottom one DS asked if I was knitting tea towels.

    I'm getting back into my knitting now and starting to learn lace which is interesting! I must admit I tend to go to Ravelry for patterns etc but unfortunately find it easy to be lured by the fellow Ravellers offering lovely yarn on the for sale board!

    Love the jumpers Cuddles!

    Do you mean the pig and sheep or the jumpers?
