    About

    Adrian is my neighbour and friend, he is a very big fella and a couple of years ago he was telling me he really wanted a Christmas jumper but couldn't find one big enough. I told him I would make him one provided I could find a pattern in his size. I put a search on Google and found a pattern but it didn't quite go big enough. So I adapted it and the challenge was on!

      This was a huge challenge but was worth it to see the smile on this gentle giant's face when I presented him with it.
