Another post this week and it is only Tuesday? Could it be that I have much more pressing things to do that I am trying desperately to avoid?
This is a jumper I finished around hanami 2006 (retro!).
From Rowan’s Vintage Style, pattern name Salina, in the recommended yarn, Felted Tweed. Made in medium, but being the hussy that I am, I wish I had made it in small for a nice snug fit.
Look! I even applied lip gloss for you.
This I wear all the time, and wash regularly, and after two years it is still in perfect nick. Rowan yarns are expensive, but it is for a reason damn it all.
damn it all. you are making me want to go and buy some rowan felted tweed. I love your salina! Now get back to your essay!!
looks perfect and comfortable! stop procrastinating!
Rowan yarn…yummy…
If you’re like me, you do your best work under pressure and at the last minute. Ganbatte!
wow-that is so pretty! Love the tweedy yarn and the fit is perfect.
gorgeous color and it looks fab on you! dying to get back to some knitting for me, but it’s gonna be a big shock after the near instant gratification of baby knitting.
