The thing I knitted in 2006 and have worn the most is this:



my ribbed, cropped cardigan. Knitted in fairly cheapish Wendy Aran Texture yarn, in cream with a black fleck, it's comfy and snug. I wear it over combats and cut-off trousers regularly. It's made quite an appearance on my blog too as it was accidentally the only jumper I took on holiday in the summer Embarassed

I remember liking that at the time too. Very Happy It would have fallen apart if it were mine by now. Laughing

My most worn item is my clapotis, especially now it's so cold up here in north wales. Rolling Eyes actually, I even wore it a bit in the summer. Shocked Embarassed

I remember it too Debs.

It's just a fab knit - practical, wearable, stylish - WASHABLE - and it suits you to a "T" - perfect! Very Happy
