Hello from Susan

I'm Susan from south west London, UK and am going to be doing a mans aran cardigan, I know the size but haven't got a pattern, so I am searching through my knitting stitch dictionaries and will make a few swatches to see what they look like. I am going on holiday for a week at the end of next week and will take the knitting along with me - I don't plan on doing much on holiday, eat, sleep (if I can) and have a few drinks and sample the local nightlife - the town I am staying in has two very nice clubs and some good live music - very heavy rock/metal in one bar and heavy dance in another, just to my liking!

Will post more when I have a swatch or two to show off. I'm using athe Sheep Shop Wensleydale Longwool Aran and UK size 7 and size 9 needles. The wool has a lovey feel and is machine washable. I am looking forward now to getting my design down on paper to start, I should be able to knit this in the timeframe given.
