All over the place and Elswhere....





I have so much to show you but I decided to keep my blog posts to one item at a time. I get so confused reading blogs when they are overly busy.

I totally loved knitting this pattern. I first spied it at Wonderwool on Sarah (Woolley Butterfly) and she told me to go and look out for Sarah (babylonglegs) in her beautiful handspun version. I knew I wanted to cast on immediately.

Last year I made some bags for Sarah (Woolley Butterfly) to sell in her shop, Brownberry yarns
I was paid in yarn and recently received some beautiful, Araucania Aysen in payment. I just knew it would be perfect for this project.

Deliciously soft, Merino/Alpaca/Silk, felt like butter as I knitted

You can see more info in my projects on Ravelry

I saved it to wear to London yesterday but only wore it for a short while as Summer Has Arrived!! I meant to get a photo of me wearing it but totally forgot, something I have been doing a lot of lately...

Oh and this Pattern is called Elsewhere by Amy Swenson

Oh, it's Lovely! I'm glad you got at least one wearing of it before the warm weather :^) and just think, come next Autumn you'll have this Beauty for snuggling in, not to mention looking very sharp! xox

Just a beautiful sweater! The colors and the shape--look flattering.

I know you said that the sleeves do not match, but in the photo the fronts are also different and the sleeves match the opposite front - if you see what I mean.
Will definitely knit one having seen yours modelled.

you are right Judy, the mismatch works, and for those reasons I reckon...I will definitely knit another of these :)

Really lovely, that pattern might have to sneak onto my never ending queue ... and isn't this weather fabulous?! (from Julia who is guilty of having one of those very busy blogs)
