Hooray! Two crochet cardigans

Hooray! the commission cardigans are complete. They have been for a fitting and returned to me for the border, sewing in ends and I have popped on one of my little labels.
 
 

 
They are now wrapped in pretty tissue paper in a gift bag ready for collection a week early. I am really pleased with them and so is my customer. I will try and get some pictures of the bridesmaids in them soon.
 
Happy XXXX Jo xx

  4. Jo these are just adorable, well done. Love the colour, shape and design of them both. They will look so cute on the lucky wearers. I would love to have a go at a garment but my crochet skills are still at the granny square stage and I don't feel that competent there either as I can't read a crochet pattern for some reason. I am hoping to extend my skills this year if I can. Love your blog Jo, you amaze me with your energy.
    Lots of love

  5. Hi Jo, I am so glad I happened to stumble across your blog! I adore these cardigans. I don't crochet, but hoping to start soon - I do knit though (and do anything craft related)! My sister does the crochet in my family and really wants me to start, she knows I will love it. I feel weird only having one hook, instead of two needles. I hope you don't mind if I follow along, my blog is here if you wanted to stop by. :)

  6. Thanks all. It is a bit tricky to see them until they are on and it will be a surprise for me too as I only have confirmation that they fit - I haven't actually seen them on toe little girls so I am so excited. The wedding is in two weeks time.

  9. These will definitely be a talking point at the wedding. I'd be surprised if you don't get more orders.
