    lol … I have one knitted jumper that my Mum made (by hand) for my sister. I got it from her, because she didn’t like it … and one of my exes borrowed it once and stretched it all out of shape :-(

    Now, I can only really wear it around the house.

      When I said knit garments I meant those made from machine knit fabrics, as opposed to woven fabrics. My dress I referred to was is a commercial rib knit so its very stretchy, and recovers afterwards.

      I’m sorry to hear about the jumper.

        Ah ok, I understand now. I think those have generally been out of my price range TBH … but in September I plan on scouring lots of charity shops in the UK so maybe something will show up :-)

        Thank you!
