I have a week off work now. 9 blissful, work-free days where I can pretty much do anything I want to, lie ahead of me! Fabulous!

I am determined to finish my moss-stich cushion once and for all and make a start on something new. Most likely this will be a simple boyfriend jumper so I can practice shaping. So far I have only knitted blocks and cushions so I really want to start something more complex. I have found a funnel neck jumper pattern which uses the same cashmere-merino wool that I used to make my cushion. It is beautiful wool and a jumper made out of it would be lovely.

Once I have mastered the simple shaping, I have a project in mind for my baby niece. I always said I would knit something for her. She is nearly one year old so it would be nice to make her a cardigan or jumper. I have a Debbie Bliss baby book so I might as well get some use out of it.
