Notes

I wanted to make this because I haven’t come accross the Woven Rib pattern before. I find it very effective. An enjoyable knit.
7/8/10 Abandoned this project to design a sweater that had popped into my head. Now that is out of the way I hope to finish this, only three quarters of the back to do and the neck.
This is actually a very quick knit and could have been done in three weeks or less. A good pattern for when there are people around and I can’t concentrate on more complex patterns.
It is amazing how each time I take a photo it comes out a different colour!
