More good mail

This time, thanks to Good Yarn Karma! A while back, Jessica posted the Interweave Knits mag (Fall 2005) to give away on Good Yarn Karma. I put my hand up for it as I like the jumper that's on the cover, and I didn't have this issue yet (I'm a bit late to the party [...]

Just random today

The whole family is recovering from the flu and I can't think very well, so everything is in point form today. — Admiring this jumper. I loved it when I first saw it on ysolda's blog last year. I love everything about it — the stripes, the shape, the neckline, the buttons on the neck [...]
