WOYWW 699 Et Voilà!

Et voilà!Here’s my Tizzy cardigan! Since someone just asked me online, I can tell you that it comprises 11.5 Tizzy squares. I feel like I’ve been doing it forever!

I’m pleased with how it swirls across the back and I’m so glad I added in the white. 

The sleeves add to the swirly effect;

I think I might reset the pockets, though. 

The length was driven by my design choice of using 1 full Tizzy square plus a triangular half square for each front. This was a mistake which meant the front was too narrow at the shoulder and I had to do a lot of infill, plus it made the front so long I had to lengthen the back. 

Does it seem daft to say I’m missing the pattern already? I’m really tempted to do another, shorter one, with a wide square and a smaller one at the front. I 2

You know when something’s right, yes? Even small things can be so satisfying. When I put this petrol blue border around the edge it felt so much more finished. 

Bella and Gracie haven’t been keen on the final parts of my Tizzy work as I keep them away when I’m using a needle. Much compensatory cuddling needed😻😻

On Sunday, we had the first Lyminge Farmers and Artisan market. 

The weather didn’t play nice but it was a good start. I was sad the wool stall didn’t turn up but there were: 

Kimchi and pumpkins (Very tasty kimchi)

Various card and jewellery stalls, a blacksmith, 

a ‘Less travelled lamb and pork’ butcher, a bit of fruit and veg and Gatehouse Farm who do good pies and baked goods. We were too late for their sourdough or scones but bought  a tasty steak and kidney pie. 

I hope they all find it worthwhile to come again! 

And finally…

I’m off to join in visiting desks now c/o Julia at the Stamping Ground

Take care and happy WOYWW!
