Third time lucky? This is the third time I’m knitting this jumper... first time, had to swap to contrast colour ribbing because I was going to run out of the MC yarn (stash-buster project). Then the 2nd attempt I used too-large needles. Now on attempt 3 #froggingsucks #knitting #knitting #1940sknitting #1940sknitwear #vintageknitting #knittersofinstagram #knitsweater #cottonyarn #thirdtimelucky #wip #workinprogress https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsofmymadlife/p/BubuHKMhmQ-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7g8l9r9fg7i9
