London: Albam's big knit

The trip to the West End wasn't a complete waste of time. Managed to bag possibly the heaviest cardie ever knitted from Albam.

The fact that it looked like the kind of thing Steve McQueen might have slung on while he was having a loaf around at home kind of swung the purchase.

And it turns out he might well have worn one of its predecessors. Boris, my rag trade pal of much knowledge, later informed me that Albam were in fact using the same Stevenage wool mill which made some of McQueen's knits. How about that?
