    About

    Child's fair isle jumper in Paintbox aran weight yarn. Soft colourways for this sample knit. Work progressing well so far.
    02.06.18 Back finished, darn those ends!
    03.06.18 Couldn't face darning the ends today so started front, but a bit too warm to knit with aran weight today so put to one side till tomorrow.
    06.06.18. Busy day today with a new garden fence being installed, so a perfect day to darn those ends.
    08.06.18. Started on the sleeves today.
    10.06.18. First sleeve finished and ends darned
    12.06.18 Second sleeve started.
    13.06.18. Second sleeve finished. Ends darned, neck completed, sleeves sewn in. Pics taken in garden of progress so far, but dappled sunlight makes it a bit tricky to see some of the colourwork clearly. I'm afraid I'm no David Bailey!
    14.06.18. Finished, and now blocking.

        They are what I'd call 'ice cream' shades Lyn, very subtle. I'll be posting more pics as I go along.
