A treat!
I've admired these Megipupu hand knitted jackets for Blythe for ages and I finally treated myself.
The jacket arrived this morning (all the way from Finland), so exciting!
The knitting is beautiful and the mix of colours is gorgeous. It's a real treat for me to buy hand knitted items. I'm going to try it on Bodee first.

Gone wrong!
I wasn't happy with the shape of the body on this hoody so I've ripped it back to around the waistline and will have another go. I'm also going to do the pockets bigger.
See here
This jacket started off for a Teenie Gem but as they are all gone now, Karrosel will wear it instead.

Finished!
Some orders finally finished and can be shown now as they have all been sent and received. These pictures are quick snaps just for my records.
Three lacey cardigans, adapted Dollswest pattern and knitted in J&S lace-weight Shetland.
Next up is my own pattern - I was asked to make a waistcoat. As it fits Rafe's chest as is, it will be the right size to wear over a shirt as the recepient is slighty narrower.
And finally a cosy sweater - again, my own pattern - knitted in a silk/wool mix.
