cabled sweater


This sweater, I made a long time ago.... it is one of the first ones I made for myself.... It is on the cover of one of Elsebeth Lavolds' books. Yarn is a cotton/linen blend in a cream and dark blue.

I love this sweater and wear it all the time

Tree jacket completed

I've finished my tree jacket, however I'm not sure if there's time for me to start Juliet - I'll make it
eventually.... recap on tree jacket - used Dale of
Norway/Svale in a dark green and cream for
contrast on neck, sleeves and waist, size 8 needles. I did add the lace to the
sleeves instead of doing the garter stitch but everything else was per the pattern.
