This week I’ve only been working on my Alpaca Diamonds jumper. I’ve added another row of diamonds at the bottom, added a couple of rows of sc/dcs at the neck to bring it in a bit, and got about half way down the sleeves. I’m doing both sleeves at the same time so I can understand how much yarn I have left. If I get the sleeves to the length I want them and have yarn left I’ll put a bit more length on the body. Because this is the third (and final) attempt to use this yarn, it’s in lots of small balls from previous frogging, so it’s hard to tell how much I have left. Lovely hand-dyed yarn brings pressure to make the finished item perfect which is how I’ve ended up frogging and starting again twice! This one is as close to perfect as I’m going to get, so I think it does this lovely yarn justice 🙂
Here it is on. I think the neck looks much better now and the sleeves are going well. Really loving how it looks on me 😀




Love that jumper, I went and sought it out to add to my favourites! I’ve been looking for the right tunisian crochet pattern to try 😊

A much better fit on the neckline. Hope you have enough to get the extra length.
