I obviously chose a project that was not of an appropriate length for the Tour de France as I have completed it and we are only up to Stage 14 when I write this post.
The jumper was a joy to knit. I had forgotten how much I enjoy colour work when knitting.
I have now started a small project for the time being.
It wont take long to knit as it is thick wool and big needles, in fact I will probably finish it on the next stage.
This is what I am making.
You can find the free pattern here.
I have a Pinterest board for woolwork, aka knitting
and another board for crochet.
I have made a few of the items on my boards but there are still many to choose from. You can view the boards by clicking on the pictures.

Beautiful fair isle knitting, looks like a very snuggly sweater…. and I absolutely L-O-V-E the bee hive honey pot tea pot cozie… I have down loaded the pattern and plan to have a go!
Bye for now, Jay x
The pattern is fairly easy. I don’t enjoy sewing up seams though, hopefully I will manage it ok.
I have no idea how you knit so fast …….. of course I only knit at night, so I’d get more done if I did it during the day! Lovely lovely things.
The Tour de France broadcast starts at 10 pm and finishes about 1.30 or 2.00am. so that is a large chunk of knitting time each night. The Tour lasts three weeks.
