Currently feeling that Vinted is rubbish. Bought two cashmere jumpers, one is too small (30 quid 😭), the other I discovered two moth holes in sleeves after I'd accepted the bloody thing. Seller can't understand why I didn't mention it earlier as they "would have amended the price". Hm.

The Jólakötturinn, or the Yule Cat is a monstrously large creature from Icelandic folklore that is said to roam the snowy countryside during Christmas, with a particular appetite for anyone who has not received new clothes before Christmas Eve or who did not wear them.

Saving a museum would be a pretty cool thing to do for Christmas, wouldn't it?

Ordered two Boden long sleeved stripey t-shirts on Vinted. Hopefully they're ok. What do you do if they're not? I did send a felted cashmere jumper back once.
