Hi, I'm Ted and I've been woken from hibernation and its still winter. Guess I've been asleep about 30 years give or take a few. Been rather indignant at the things being done to me lately; cotton buds up my nose, a soak upside
down in warm water but the bubbles in my eyes were no fun and the worst of it - to be hung on a wire line by ... my ... ears - how undignified!I must be getting on in bear years, not much substance in the limbs and cataracts on both eyes but I was well loved once and maybe Reggie would like me to keep him/her company in the nursery.
Really enjoyed knitting this garment, haven't done lace for forever. Of course, I do have two operating knitting machines so don't hand knit a great deal. The body is all in one piece to the armhole, including the front bands, which saved a lot of stitching up. The shoulders I used three needles and knitted the stitches together and cast off (what's that called). I did the same around the armhole which just left the sleeve seam which I used a flat seam. Not perfect but at least something is finished.
