    About

    Knitting finished and stored for over two months now, picture taken at the time and pretty much archived. Since I also knitted another jumper, modified or unraveled other works that were not worn ... These were difficult and strange times with lot of work (I work in a hospital). So a disrupted society put the publications on hold.
    Nevertheless, this jumper met all my expectations. Infinitely simple in its construction, cables, twists and especially bobbles which I translated into so many wishes.
    It is an oversized pullover with dropped sleeves, it looks boxy but it is perfect.

    Measurements

    Notes: I made an XS size.
    Little anecdote: 24 cm for the sleeves .... I found it extremely short, having overlooked the dropped sleeves.
    So I lengthened the sleeves as for a standard sweater, I assembled the knitting and ended up with drooping sleeves of +/- 40 cm.
    I looked like scarecrow !
    I unraveled and adjusted, now it's just ideal.
