That was the name of the green wool I picked up in an
op shop recently!
My new jumper is a long sleeved version of the
Soldotna crop!
I think it came together perfectly....
It was even a pleasure burying all those threads..
😁
More details of the sleeve decreasing can be found on
On a bit of side note, do you find reading my blog
difficult because all the text is centred?
I have a feeling one of my long time followers has
stopped reading my blog for this reason!
Never mind....their loss!

I also knitted up this little beanie,
while I was away on holidays recently!
It is made from a self striping yarn-
I now need to find another project for nights in front of
the TV!
Happy days!

The sweater is beautiful. I love the colors. The cap is so nice too.
ReplyDeleteI love your new jumper. The colours are wonderful. Centre alignment doesn't bother me :)
ReplyDeleteThe jumper is great. Such happy colours. I am quite happy with the text, it doesn’t bother me at all.
ReplyDeleteLovely new jumper with its fair isle yoke. The beanie is sweet & I've taken to knitting a few doggie jumpers for friends with canine kids. I always need to be busy while watching mindless TV. Take care and hugs.
ReplyDeleteI love your new sweater. The colors are beautiful and bright.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking sweater. It's been many years since I did anything that big. I've been busy these days knitting beanie hats for a homeless charity. I recently found out about HELIX knitting and I'm hooked haha. I'm made 4 hats using 2 strands - one plain one variegated - and I love the effect. These hats and more to come, will (hopefully) be sold and any money raised will go to Parkinsons charity. Centred text is ok with me :)
ReplyDeleteI Love your sweater Suz. The colors are gorgeous, and fancy getting the yarn from an op shop. How lucky was that. I was looking at knitting this sweater. Did you make any alterations to the neck?
ReplyDeleteJust catching up on posts after a week away.
ReplyDeleteLove the colours in your new jumper. I do like the way the design comes together.
And the hat is a delight, too.
No, not a problem reading your blog the way it is. All fine by me.
Who cares if your text is centered? Write however you want, it's fine by me (although I tend to read in batches).
ReplyDeleteI love that opening photo with your bright smile and your beautiful sweater! What a gorgeous color with a funny name, but again, I am impressed with your talents and skills. I love the pattern and am also impressed with your beanie-making. You are a amazing.
