The perils of knitting in a poor light!

That's cute Witzend. As an aside when my son was in uniform those horrible polyester shirts had a tendency to age to cream

That’s fabulous and don’t worry about the difference in colours. Well done to you.

It's still cute and no child is going to notice the difference they will just love it.

What a 'Bobby dazzler'.

Looks good to me! 👍

It certainty looks good to me too. My mother was born without thumbs on either hand. It didn't stop her however, she knitted wonderful jumpers that were out of this world🌏 She was also a wonderful horsewoman & competed in many dressage trials! A force of nature! 😊

I do admire a clever “cover-up” of a mistake.
He is lovely. Would you be able to share the pattern please. Perfect for a little chap I know who would love him.

Well done! Now only another 19,999 to go and that should fill the gap that Theresa May's infamous cuts to police numbers visited on us.
(But will they be any good at rounding up shoplifters?)

Feelingmyage55, I’m so sorry, but all the Knit for Nowt patterns are password-protected - all donated for free by the designers - they’re to be used only for the charity - we are asked not to share them.

Barely noticeable, Witzend.
Perhaps his mother washed half in Persil (remember the adverts?).
By the time his high viz jacket is on, no-one will notice. He looks very jolly.

I'm using a cream for crocheting that is almost white. In electric light it's difficult to see the difference.

witzend thank you for explaining.

I think it looks great. You are so talented.
