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 You don't have to pick up for the neck edging it's done as you go. _________________ Ali xxx |

I keep looking at it, it really is lovely and it goes big enough
It's probably too much though, especially with a missing mojo  _________________ Ali

Probably not - though the one on Rav has a higher neckline which is strange
No I wouldn't think of doing it without your mojo  _________________ Ali xxx |

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