The hottest day of the year so Mavis Cruet is mode

The hottest day of the year so Mavis Cruet is modelling - I don't do heat! This is the Berry Wrap from #jujusloops in soft and snuggly Knoll Mohair Tweed. It comes in a good range of deep jewel colours and neutrals available in the shop. Bring on some chilly mornings.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I can’t decide if this one off is yellow or green but if it helps it’s the colour of a not quite ripe greengage.
If anyone has any suggestions for a tree full of fruit I’m in need of ideas.
Have a lovely weekend x

A big thank you to the Fibre East team for running this virtual weekend and to everyone who bought, commented or liked.
The really best thing about a virtual show is there’s no packing up and long drive home.
