Easy Tote Bags (Sewing Project For Beginners)

DeleteKnitting is great for relaxing with at night. I do the same, but only manage about 4 rows! Still, slow but sure progress will always get a knitted garment complete - with patience! Your jumper is beautiful, and you must have been very accurate with your swatch, because the final result is just perfect.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sarah Liz. Looking forward to see your finished garment :)
DeleteBeautiful work!
