You got some fab stuff.!! My fav buy was a Jasper Conran dress for £1, a silk dress I bought for my sisters wedding for £4, my dresser and old framed art

The cardigan is beautiful and £25 is a bargain for a hand knitted piece. I’m a weaver and can tell you yarn and wool is expensive 😮 Learning a craft / skill takes years of practice, there are a lot of failed attempts and frustration when trying to work out patterns and creating a hand made piece of clothing. Enjoy it, it’s lovely 🥰

That cardigan is a bargain. My mum used to knit everything when we were children. so many hours go into it and wool is so expensive. I would have picked it up. Enjoy wearing it.

The rug is gorgeous, I love both sides and it would look great as a wall hanging. & Other Stories is a high-end label, quite minimalistic and the cardigan will be so versatile. Mercy in Action is a charity shop I've been to and they always have special items. Enjoy all your finds x

I'm still trying to figure that out. But because it's so itchy I think it must be! I just need to figure out how to get rid of the itching. 💛

£25 is alot, but for real wool, and hand made it will be such high quality. Just be careful that in your endeavours to soften the wool that you don't damage the fibers too much, long fibers are slower to bobble, and wool fibers are able to regulate temperature when properly cared for.

And Other Stories is/was worn by Katherine Princess of Wales which is probably why they shoved the price up 😅 Lovely cardie, not a rip off.
