      Gorgeous cardi Jennifer, love the sheep. Can't wait to see number 2 as well. I miss so much on here nowadays - really miss the feed. Even the short feed was better than nothing.

        @Jennifer M: Thanks Jennifer, I'd never have found that - they don't make it easy do they?

        Thank you Sue for your kind words. I enjoyed knitting this, I am now doing the second one in different colours. Second attempt at starting and I like the colours.

      Ohh my golly Jennifer this is fantastic, so many different things to look at. I love the colours you have used, the wee sheep are so cute, and we even have pockets. I always like collars as they look dressy and a zip as well my golly so much work but it is beautiful and Akom or Zian will look so cool dressed in it.😊😊

        Thanks Michelle, now you know why I had so many ends in the pile. Started the second one and Rochelle and I weren’t happy with them so changed them and started again. Beautiful day here, maybe a little bit of gardening today, still taking it easy. How are you and Michael ?

        @Jennifer M: it is amazing Jennifer and yes I can see why you had so many different ends to sew in. Alot of work but so worth it, can't wait to see pictures of the boys in them.😊😊it's a lovely day here too and we are going to just potter around tidying up the garden, some of the plants we put in have gone crazy and just look really messy. We have had a couple of days of rain here which has been nice for a change and the mornings and nights are definitely getting cooler.😊😊we are fine Michael had his last rabies injection this week and has to have a blood test in 2 weeks to see if everything is OK. 😊😊Enjoy being out in the sun today.😊

        Thank you Mary. Fun to knit. Sewing up took a while with the Zip and all the ends.

        Thanks Christine
        I hope the Zip will be Ok and not pull away from the garment. I used one years ago and it wasn't very successful. I hope this will be OK.

        Thanks Linzi, I debated about putting a zip in. I hope it is ok. I nearly did button holes. I back stitched it in so it should hold. Hard to find the right colour so used a black one.
