    About

    I have many projects started but never 2 be finished, when it comes 2 knits 4 me !! I've made 4 cardis in the last 12 mnths, all waiting 2 be sewn up, my least favourite part ! So made myself a promise 2 get them done so I can actually wear them ! Nearly all purple of course !! Beautifully written pattern, a real pleasure 2 knit.

      Very nice, just your colour lol. Love the neat edging. Well done for finishing it.

      I’ve got 3 on the go at the minute, I do the backs then get bored so I’m doing the same making myself complete them before starting anything else.

        Thank u Carole. Really pleased with it 💜 Hopefully it'll inspire me now 2 finish the others. I think we're all guilty 🤭 it's the finishing off & sewing up that gets me, if i don't lose interest first ! Ought 2 try sewing up as i go, then it wouldn't be such a chore at the end.

        @Purplelizzie: I know what you mean the knitting is much better than the sewing. Sometimes the thought of it is worse than actually doing it.

      Well how good are you finishing off your projects. I bet you are glad you did your cardi is gorgeous and of course that colour is so pretty. Oh with a name like purple passion it has a lot to live up to.😊😊

      Very neatly knitted Lizzie. Love the detail around the hem and front. Great colour too of course!

      Lovely cardigan Lizzie, I have a jumper for me half finished I always seem to be last on the list. I have 5 projects on the go at the moment I will have to finish them all before i start something else. I bet I don't finish mine.

        Thank u Jennifer. I think we're all the same ! I like having several things on the go. It's just the sewing up i find tedious !

      Wow, what a lovely cardigan, i like the detail on the bottom & around the cuffs. I know the feeling it’s been a couple plus years since i made anything for myself i have 4/5 lots of wool to make myself some jumpers & cardigans, get them done one day 😊

        Thank u Elaine. The detail is lovely & there's nice side shaping as well. What r we like 🤭 keep telling myself when i retire but that keeps getting further away ! So I must be more disciplined !
