I have to tell you it is to wear to the old-time country dances in our winter time here, and it was just right to put around my shoulders as I sat down in the breaks. It is quite thick as I held two strands of 'wool' together, and I already had the dark left over from another project, so it only cost me $3 for two 100g of the blue on special. The sleeves are three-quarter and I wore a black long sleeved top.
My skirt is a bit more sparkly than it looks here, I would not normally buy something like this but I had it for my granddaughter's Deb Ball. I have shortened it a bit at the top.
Do join Smiling Sally for all the Blue Monday posts.
Have a great week friends..... and I must mention..... thanks to all my readers, I do appreciate you.
Love and Blessings - Jan

That sweater is beautiful and looks wonderful with the skirt!
That is a beautiful piece of hand work. I never learned to knit, but enjoy what others create.

Hi Jan, your hand knitted top is so pretty. You could never buy anything nicer that this. Your whole outfit is so pretty. Nice job. It is winter in Australia? It must be. Smile.
Have a wonderful day.
Hugs, Jeanne
That is a beautiful ensemble Jan. I love the knitted top. It looks like a bolero length cardigan and what a bargain for the yarn. Someday I might be able to put together something like it :-) Thanks for sharing it with us.
