I went on ebay to find some red aran wool to knit Alex an aran hooded jacket (he absolutely loves red clothes) and my search pulled up one that had been knitted by a woman in Ireland. It had way more cables than I would have bothered with.

So I bid on that one and sent her a message asking if she knitted to order. She does, and she has already started on a matching blue one for Theodore! So now I shall knit one for Nathaniel instead. He wants one in red too, obviously thinking that there must be something in this red business that he has previously been missing. I shall buy whatever takes my fancy though as I shall be knitting it!
