This is the famous Sedgemoor short sleeved cardigan from The Knitter, which seems to have been their most popular pattern ever.




Plain socks in self patterning yarn, quite a cheap one from Rico.



Another pattern from The Knitter (same issue) using lovely Lorna's Laces yarn. I like the stripy feet. These socks were much easier to make than they look. Plus, the stranding makes them extra warm. Click for a better view.

Help, now for the first time for ages I've nothing on the needles! What shall I make next? Might look at some stashbuster patterns.

Thank you! The yarn cost me £2.00 in a charity shop and had been hanging around in my stash. Win!

Is it okay if I show them to Jen? (Knitter Tech ed) She'll be really chuffed to see them. She has her own Sedgemoor, and I always admire it.

And welcome! That particular issue, #12, was full of things I liked.

I love that 1940's style short sleeve cardi. Beautiful shade of blue. I wish I could knit. Nicola@vintagereads

Thank you. My mother taught me when I was very young, which helps, but everyone's learning nowadays!
