In the Dutch Nouveau magazine I fell in love with this...
You could order it from Nouveau, handknitted and ready to wear; which I did.
Here I am with kitty Spooky II, and wearing the hand knitted sweater.
My sister Diny did mail it as a parcel from The Netherlands to Georgia...
Spooky was a happy boy!
The sweater looks beautiful and warm! Love the photos of you with Spooky II. Such happy memories :-)
ReplyDeleteDearest Tamago,
DeleteYes, that sweater is warm and great for walking outdoors, without having to wear a jacket.
Our Georgia winters are not that cold, compared to many other areas.
These photos are very special happy memories of Spooky II.
Hugs,
Mariette
Love the sweater. And Spooky II is very cute. There was a gray and white kitty in the crew that I feed but I haven't seen him in a couple of weeks so don't know what happened. Always makes me sad not knowing where they are. Take care.
ReplyDeleteDearest Tammy,
DeleteYes, that sweater will always bring back fond memories of our Spooky II.
Oh, that is awful not knowing where those kitties are from one day to the next.
But isn't it sad that as an outsider we worry more about them then their previous owners that coldheartedly abandoned them...?!
Hugs,
Mariette
Bellissimo Spooky,buona domenica!
ReplyDeleteCara Olga,
DeleteSì, era un gato bellissimo.
Buona domenica e quattro Avvento a tutti voi.
Abbracci,
Mariette
Cute cat;-))
ReplyDeleteDearest Anne,
DeleteYes, that was a cute and smart cat...

Mariette
Wonderful sweater. I bet it's warm.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Dearest Victor,
DeleteYes it is very warm as a thick, all wool one.
Best to wear when being outdoors.
Hugs,
Mariette
You look chic as always, and the sweater certainly looks cosy. Spooky II was adorable, snuggled in your arms. Sweet. ❤️
ReplyDeleteDearest Kim,
DeleteThank you and guess in your area I would be wearing this sweater a lot more, it is rather thick for our region, except for a few cold days.
Spooky II was a sweet boy...!
Hugs,
Mariette
Hello Mariette, It's a good thing that Spooky's looks coordinated with your new sweater, otherwise he would have been out in the cold!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that your operation was a success, and the holidays are a perfect time to relax and recuperate.

Dearest Jim,
DeleteThat Spooky never would be out in the cold, we loved him and cared for him.
Yes, the operation was a huge success, so happy with the outcome and indeed, this time of the year is perfect for winding down in a relaxed way.
Hugs,
Mariette
Creo que te pasa como a mí. Cuando me enamoro de una prenda o de algún artículo en concreto, no tengo ojos nada más que para eso.
ReplyDeleteBesos
Querida Antónia,
DeleteSí, cuando vi este suéter en la revista holandesa, me enamoré de él y me alegro de haberlo conseguido. En días muy fríos, principalmente ventosos es bueno usarlo.
Abrazos,
Mariette
Such pretty photos
ReplyDeleteDearest Jo-Anne,
DeleteThank you and they remain precious memories.
Hugs,
Mariette
Well you two would have been the perfect models. I really like the houndstooth check.
ReplyDeleteDearest Janey,
DeleteThank you for your kind words and as for the houndstooth check, I did fall in love with it at first sight!
Hugs,
Mariette
Precious photos. I like the first one... the b&w kitty is a perfect match!
ReplyDeleteDearest SP&P,
DeleteOf course, the first one is from a model in a professional magazine...
But all we had at the time was our Spooky II.
Hugs,
Mariette
