Jumper.
After the combined thin yarns which I knitted by hand, I wanted to use the knitting machine using a 'normal' hand knitting yarn. So I went through my stash and found some blue and white leftovers and a ball of red (100 gr) of Bergelle100. In 2006 I knitted two Breton jumpers for my grandsons, 4 and 2 years old at the time, see pict #3.
I weighed the yarn, divided it in two and started the front and back. Weighed the remainder, started at the top of the sleeves and thought I would not have enough red left but maybe doing some white stripes there as well I might just make it. It was a bit nerve racking, but it turned out I'd calculated rather well - see picture #2 for what is left after I sewed the seams.
Picture #1 shows the completed jumper.
P.S. Wish we had sound, you should hear the rain it's bucketing down - vertical and the birds are chirping away madly.
As for the wheather - after a couple of glorious days of sun and 26C we had overcast skies and a bit of rain and 16C yesterday. Solar panels went from 24 kW to a meagre 9. Today looks slightly better
