Peaches and Cream

I've been working on a "peaches and cream" jumper for a few weeks now (on and off, as I do). It's pure Australian wool, and I put those two colours together as I didn't have enough of either for a whole jumper. It sort of works, I suppose, but it's not my favourite thing ever. I also made the first sleeve way too long, so after I'd done the 2nd sleeve correctly, pulled back the first one and re-did the top shaping. They are now the same length!!

Last night I picked up the stitches for the neckband, and tonight I finished it, and have sewn up the other shoulder. I decided to leave the rest of the sewing up for tomorrow. At least the neck is very stretchy - I have to work hard to make my necks loose enough. It's a roll neck, as well, which should be very cosy. The whole thing is nice and soft and stretchy, so should be very comfy to wear.

I have decided that I will start Mum's socks next. Followed by the brown vest....
