I think the wool you mean is Louisa Hardings Amiltola which I enjoyed knitting with and which I be blogging about soon.

Transitions can be so stressful. I hope things are on a more even keel now and I'm really glad you had a good time at the Minerva meet up. Wow, those ladies were wearing some amazing dresses! Did anyone turn up in jeans?! Your dress is beautiful and I just love the duck egg colour.<br /><br />Also - I just wanted to say thank you for your comments on my blog. They always cheer me and make me smile, and make me feel grateful for blogging friendships and the support of like-minded people. xGillian Roehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05080123177116154219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-253964350977142014.post-79168399456202262012014-07-18T08:14:49.248-07:002014-07-18T08:14:49.248-07:00Found your blog and wow it is wonderful.. your dre...Found your blog and wow it is wonderful.. your dress making skills are so good, those jackets you've made are amazing. All shown off by your slim figure.. I haven't sewn any clothes for a long, long time, I put on weight and so gave up, but recently a friend told me about a couple of sites with half price patterns so I have a skirt and an easy top pattern... now all I have to do is find some dress fabric.<br />I loved that light weight variegated yarn which was aqua, blue and purply in colour and wondered what it was.. I can see that as a super crochet shawl.<br />I have become a follower so I can pop back to see all your projects.<br />Happy sewing <br />Chris Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18332613086771922320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-253964350977142014.post-19870687508652092212014-07-11T11:59:28.778-07:002014-07-11T11:59:28.778-07:00That's a shame,it is really hard to carry on,...That's a shame,it is really hard to carry on, would the sleeves be better shorter? Does the collar make it quite thick in parts?

I'm not a big fan of the length of the sleeves, and was struggling with the cuffs. I put a full lining in mine, too. Not sure if I'll be returning to it…it's hard to go back to a project after getting so frustrated at it!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10524828341998338425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-253964350977142014.post-64694250416351367742014-07-10T00:11:11.606-07:002014-07-10T00:11:11.606-07:00Thanks so much Kaitlyn, yes I would like to make i...Thanks so much Kaitlyn, yes I would like to make it in a heavy silk for going out.magshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15683334679520535250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-253964350977142014.post-73745562015437476952014-07-08T15:04:45.181-07:002014-07-08T15:04:45.181-07:00This is such a lovely dress, and the duck egg blue...This is such a lovely dress, and the duck egg blue colour is beautiful.
