Monkey Jumper for Fibre Arts Friday

The Monkey jumper is finally finished, and looks fabulous. The pattern is called Elfe (link there for Ravelry peeps.) She wants a pair of orange and green socks to match (to wear on the opposite feet of course). I am not usually home on Fridays, and have not had much to share, so have not linked to Fibre Arts Friday for a long long time. Pop over to Wisdom Begins in Wonder and check out what other crafty people have been making.
 My week off has also entailed a visit to Gateshead to check up on the boys. Getting all four of them in one place is a rare occurrence and demands a permanent record.
A year ago I invested in a Rowan subscription; you only get two magazines, I loved everything in this one and nothing at all in the second one they sent. 
I finally settled on which pattern to knit. 
So I started knitting my Bute Sweater, and love the way it is coming out but really don't like the silver/grey edging, it just doesn't go with the other colours so will have to unravel and go hunting for something more suitable.
