    About

    I had purchased a lot of yarn last year to make myself a cardi. I put the yarn away and still to this day can’t for the life of me remember what pattern I was even going to use. So I have been gradually incorporating it into garments for the grandchildren and friends grandkids.
    A very simple, all in one piece knit from the top down.

        Thanks Sandra, I seem to be on a roll with knitting of late, but thankfully managed to stop myself adding more yarn to my stash when I was in Morris Yarn yesterday buying needle tips. What is it about yarn that you just want to pick it up, feel it & imagine what could be knitted with it.

        Thank you YM, I enjoyed knitting this and as pattern has 3 options for different boleros, I’d like to eventually knit up one of each.

      Thank you Jennifer and Denise for your comments. I shall be utilising other spare yarn to make some more depending on the sex of 4 new babies due this year. I do love quick knits.
