Easter Jumper

I finished this spring pastels striped jumper last week but alas it was waaaaaaaay too warm to wear it today for Easter. I'm thawing out very nicely, though I wasn't expecting us to jump into warmer weather that quickly!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!

Autumnal Colours Jumper

The yummy Rod Stewart has it right with these autumnal stripes...
Front and Back views of the jumper...
I created this jumper / sweater based on the autumnal colours in this landscape which I find magical!

Unfortunately I did not have the wonderful chartreuse green featured in this colourful autumnal landscape but made do with what I already had...And the result is quite similar. So not too bad...

Jonquil Jumper

OK, so this is my very first ANYTHING that I've knitted! I wanted a saffron yellow sweater and voila! - I KNITTED one!!! The previous day I had received my very first instruction on how to knit...so I must be forgiven for this first attempt's shortcomings... ;-D
It took one week to complete...not bad for a first go...I think... But then again, I just might unravel it and make it V-necked, now that I've taught myself how to make that through trial and error! More knitted items coming soon...
The precise shade / hue is called Jonquil, but I like to think it's a lovely saffron yellow. And I think it would go well with this amber necklace...
it's proving to be more versatile than I thought...
 these blonde tortoiseshell sunglasses...
these cranberry red sunglasses would team well too!
