If I'd known him better I'd have been touching...but just look at all the textures.
This is the inside. He said it was computer driven machine knitted in a "slub" style, but I haven't found out any more than that. Fabulous!

Tenterden Folk Festival...again!
One of the many joys of a folk festival is the fantastic colours of the Morris Dancers' costumes - but I was completely taken aback by the jumper worn by one of the musicians. I absolutely HAD to go and admire at close quarters (walking all around the poor man!) and luckily enough he offered to let me take photos before I had the nerve to ask!

Ah yes, that sweater begs to be touched!
I used to be a reknitter and had a shop in downtown seattle. I had several of these sweaters come in for me to do work on them and they were all by a certain brand name but for the life of me I cant remember what it was. I will post it when it comes to me, probably in the middle of the night :p
I think he is rather enjoying the attention!

I remembered it! The brand name is Coogi and they are quite expensive. I remember the first time someone brought one into my shop I just loved it!
it certainly looked like it should be expensive :-)
