Notes

So named because my Mum insists on calling it “your Dennis the Menace jumper”. The actual knitting of this went very quickly indeed, and I do want to wear it… but for some reason it’s been languishing in a bag for years waiting to be sewn up and finished. Ooops?

Those unfinished pieces had been menacing me (I’m just hilarious) for so many years. I was never going to sew them up, let’s face it. So I sucked it up and binned it.

Sayonara, Menace!
