Fashion drawing of a woman wearing a cable jumper and blue trousers

Photo of a cream cable knit jumper in lightweight cotton (Amazon Essentials). I have bought “better” cotton cable jumpers from Seasalt, White Stuff, Joules, and they have all been too heavy and bulky. This is the only one that has been really comfortable

Two little hardback books by Roger Hargreaves and Agatha Christie 

Mr Poirot: Mystery on the Opulent Express and Little Miss Marple: Bump in the Library

Fashion drawing of a woman wearing a denim maxi skirt and a white t shirt

Photo of a denim maxi skirt. The skirt has a seam detail that gives the impression of sewn down pleats. The skirt is very old and I cannot remember where I bought it. The photo is the best I can do today. Please forgive the untidy room
