Thank you @absolutelynotfabulous and @Floisme I have had a look on both those sites, lovely things but way out of my price range 😊
I am thinking that maybe I should try one on before buying or knitting as in the 90s I was significantly smaller in the bust and am now a G cup, due to childbirth and age, am wondering actually if I would look like an old school matron with a huge bosom or Mrs Doubtfire now in a twinset lol ! @mathanxiety I do knit but mostly toys and scarves etc. I think a jumper with a slightly lower neck would look better than the higher crew neck twinsets I remember
