Yay! I’ve finished the tuck stitch sweater….
It’s very bulky – takes up the room of two sweaters when folded up in the wardrobe – which is going to be great for keeping me warm, but does make one look rather bulky. I think for this reason I’ll stick to cables in future.
I also don’t like the neck, but I can wear it with a scarf to disguise that. (Yes, I know I could frog the neck and do it again, but you know how I feel about frogging.)
Until next time,
Bekki x
It looks great:)

You pose beautifully and if that is you looking bulky, there’s not much to worry about then! It’s a lovely stitch and there’s always another winter……….

Aw! Thank you. I only had five minutes before I needed to go out, so was more thinking I needed to get on with it than worrying about pose – must remember that for future.
Yep, always another winter and almost always winter on Dartmoor anyway 🙂

Certainly is. Suspect that’s where your weather’s still at? Fortunately not so cold here, although definitely not spring weather either.

Aw! Thank you. I do love natural cream coloured sweaters. Think I might start a cream cardigan next.

It looks like it has the perfect amount of woolly winter bulkiness to me and everyone can tell there’s a non-bulky Bekki inside. I like it best without the scarf – show off those tucks!

Ha ha! Yes, as long as I slow down on the chocolate or there will be a bulky Bekki by next winter. Sans scarf is definitely growing on me.

I love how this sweater turned out. It has such a fun pattern. ANd I like the neck. It looks really good on you. Bulky sweaters seem to be in style now. This looks very cozy.

Thank you. I made up the pattern for the sweater and used a stitch from the book of tuck stitches I have.

It’s a super jumper with and without the scarf, and if you look bulky can I have some of what you are on so I to may look as fab?
