Getting knitty with it


It started out as a harmless little jumper, this knit obsession of mine. I know I'm not doing knitwear blah,blah,blah but I just wanted a little bit of mohair, that was all. Trouble is you can't have a little bit of mohair, certainly I can't. So it became 'just a few' knitwear pieces - just the basics, a slouchy cardi, a jumper, perhaps a snood, but no more. And then I met my knitter.

I only had to say cable stitch and we were off - tubular knits imposed onto plain knits, viscose with mohair, mohair with mohair, anything with mohair really. And so begins my foray into knitwear a mere 10 weeks before the whole collection has to be finished, as Jay Z says "difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week".
