It's this one which is knit in Jaspee an acrylic wool blend - very cheap (about £1.80 a ball) or it knits at 19st so any of the usual arans will be ok.

It is gorgeous isn't it!! I have seen it a few times and almost bought the pattern but not for some reason.

Ali you definitely could I'm sure - cabling isn't hard and look how well franney did with her first garment which was very cabley Cool You don't have to pick up for the neck edging it's done as you go.

I keep looking at it, it really is lovely and it goes big enough  Razz

It's probably too much though, especially with a missing mojo  Rolling Eyes

Laughing  Laughing Probably not - though the one on Rav has a higher neckline which is strange Confused

No I wouldn't think of doing it without your mojo Laughing

My mum has read Womans Weekly since the 1950s and I have been inheriting my mum's copy the whole of my married life. If I stopped getting it now I'd miss it dreadfully! How sad is that Sad

What is probably sadder is that I buy Peoples Friend from time to time - if I like the look of the knitting pattern- and then read those awful naff stories.
I think it's official, I'm over the hill!

Don't worry Glynis, you're not alone, I'm over there with you. WW does tend to become a habit - I sadly acquired it in my 30's Shocked

This neckline's just too low for my jubblies as they are over the hill with Glynis!
