EvilPixie Feb 2023 9:01am, 2 Feb 2023 40,023 posts	0 EvilPixie Just bought this as it also has a sampler pattern thought I would "try before I buy"! Really love the kits shown in the Gansey link but don't want to splash out (even if birthday money!) and waste or ruin in
Garfield Feb 2023 9:20am, 2 Feb 2023 17,111 posts	0 Garfield Nice! I know how you feel about wanting to try it out before buying. I have a couple of books floating around the house that I wish I could have seen all the patterns in it before buying!!
Meglet Feb 2023 10:02am, 2 Feb 2023 23,296 posts	0 Meglet Those Ganseys are lovely, but I'd have reservations about the wool aas I find a lot of wool very itchy. Seeing the price of the knitted ganseys I was actually pleasantly surprised at the price of a kit, but I don't think it would be for me as I like fitted knitwear and they are very straight sided (I'm not!). £25 for a hat kit seems rather good though!
