      Once again Michelle I am not seeing your projects on the community pages. I really don’t understand it. I seem to have missed loads. Anyway,the cabling on this jumper is impressive. And the wool you have used is a lovely colour. I can’t believe this is a free pattern! 😮

        Thank you Helen it was a lovely jumper to knit and I was so lucky that it's free pattern. I really like that moss green too.😊😊Don't stress about not seeing my posts, I don't see anyone's posts I have to go to the community section and try and catch up all the time. Hope you are coping with your heat over there.😊😊💕💕

        @Michelle M: Yes it’s very annoying though. I suffered quite a lot on Tuesday, but much better now thank goodness. 🥵 😊 💕

        Thank you Dianne I really like doing cables I have to concentrate and it's fun seeing the finished product.😊😊 I am copying you, I have just cast on for the Elegant neck warmer. My friend sent me two beautiful blankets she had made with all beautiful sayings on them so I thought if I made one of these it would keep her warm. I'm just using some aran stash I have here so I hope it looks as nice as yours.😊😊

        @Michelle M: Looking forward to seeing your Elegant Neck Warmer Michelle, it’s a really nice quick pattern, I’m going to knit another at some point. I think it would work with most yarn thicknesses.

        Thank you Linzi I really enjoyed making it and the pattern was really well written.I find cables easier to do than lacy work especially when it comes to decreasing and increasing.😊💕💕

        Thank you Beth I think it depends on the way the pattern is written, this one was so easy to follow. One thing I really struggle with is lacy knitting I'm OK until it gets to increasing and decreasing, get so lost.lol.😊😊

        @Michelle M: Yes, watched the celebrations on TV. Amazing! Weather better for it in London. We had a lot of rain here on the south coast. Lots of soggy street parties. ☔ But sunshine 🌞 today. Hope all is well with you Michelle 💕

        Thank you Jennifer, I liked doing the cables and the colour is actually nicer than the photo.😊😊 I would struggle doing the intarsia work that you do, wool would be tangled everywhere even with bobbins.😂😊

        Thank you Joan it was actually fun as I had to follow the pattern and just take things slowly. I really like cables too so that helped.😊💕

        Thank you Elaine I really enjoyed knitting it and this is going to sound strange but as I had to take my time on each row my arm didn't play up as much as when I knit row after row of stocking stitch. 😊It was easier to do than the striped one I think it was just the way the pattern was written.😊This time next week you would have had your appointment and injection. Woo hoo.💕💕

        Yeah I agree stocking stitch always takes me longer to knit, with a pattern it is more interesting😊
        Yep 8.30am next Thursday morning, can’t wait 💕

        Thank you Christine I am really happy with it and the pattern was so easy to follow. It funny how each pattern is so different and some I thought would be easy I struggled with and others just fall into place.😊😊
