    About

    While visiting him last year I purchased amazing yarn at called Buttercream, Lux Craft, Mohair Brushed. When I got home and took a careful look at the thin yarn which required size 2/2,75mm needles I doubted very much that I would get around to knitting the cardigan. However, due to Covid 19 and South Africa going into forced lockdown, I started the mammoth task.
    Nora Bea's pattern was fabulous, detailed and accurate. It was interesting and kept me going. I loved knitting this garment

      That’s a lot of knitting! You’ll be feeling really pleased with the finished garment and to see it being worn. I have also done lots of knitting during our Lockdown here in New Zealand!
