Hairy Jumper


Hairy Jumper
Originally uploaded by webfrau.

This was knitted from the Fluffy Sweater pattern in the book Vintage Knits by Sarah Dallas. I have no idea what the wool is apart from it's something extremely hairy. I've had this yarn in my stash for at least 10 years, I must've bought it cheap as there were no ball bands on it. However it worked and despite the fact that I resemble an ill yeti when wearing it, it's extremely warm. The sweater is plain except for twisted rib bands which are completely lost amongst the fur. It was a pretty quick knit.

With the recent acquisition of some "almost a match" beads cambio is back on the needles.

Your comment about looking like an "ill yeti" made me laugh. :)
