A few ramblings about knitting, mainly vintage stuff and other bits and bobs. You can buy digital downloads of patterns directly from the site, or head over to either my Etsy store or Payhip

Easy and Quick . . .

Front of knitted lace jumper from the 1930s in blue aran wool
. . . . well until I get distracted again and start something else.

I have been working on a pinwheel cardigan and it's gorgeous but it takes so long to go round now I wanted a rest. And I found this wonderful late 1930s beauty to give me some quick and easy relief.

It's a great blouse that is made from thick yarn and big needles so shouldn't take too long to make. I have 2 of those huge 400g balls of aran something with wool and hunted down my 7mm needles and away I went. In just over a day I have made the front so if I'm lucky I might even get to finish is this weekend.
