About an hour before I was due to go out, I finally finished knitting my forest jumper (sweater), which meant that I could wear it out to dinner. I changed the pattern (<a href=\"http:\/\/50villapeikkoa.blogspot.com\/2008\/07\/baby-cables-and-big-ones-too.html\">Baby Cables and Big Ones Too<\/a>) just slightly by adding a tall neck to it (I like warm necks!). <\/p>\n<p>Actually, in finding the link to go in the previous sentence, I&#8217;ve discovered I knitted the sleeves slightly differently too. Instead of just adding a garter stitch panel around the cables on the sleeve end, I&#8217;ve made the whole bottom part of the sleeve garter stitch. I like my accidental misfollowing of the pattern better, as it happens! (There was a part of the pattern about a garter stitch cuff that just didn&#8217;t make any sense to me. Now I understand what that was all about!)<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m really happy with it, and it is lovely and warm to wear. I&#8217;m very pleased with the Melody yarn in Forest colour from Bendigo Woollen Mills. Melody is wool, cashmere and microfibre, with a high twist. It is smooth and creates a lovely knitted fabric. It looks to me like it won&#8217;t pill, but time will tell on that one!<\/p>\n<p>At some point I&#8217;ll take a photo and share it with you. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was due to go out with friends on Saturday night, and so knitted furiously that afternoon.
