to have a little look through my wee stash of beanies, to see if there was anything nice and slouchy that would work for a teenage grand-daughter.
unfortunately, nothing in my pre-made beanie hoard fit the bill, so what more was there to do but cast something on!
thankfully, i had this lovely wool in my stash.
oh, and i found this pattern to knit it up in.
the pattern consists of daisy stitch, which i had never knitted before!
it was slow-going, and a little tight, tension wise (my hands were a little sore after finishing up) but i love the way it has come together.
oh, and of course, i had to put one of my labels on there too!
ravelled.
what are you making at the moment? do you have a little stock-pile of things you have made?
you are a treasure. One happy granny here, and I'm sure a happy teen when she gets to see it later this week.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole, what a great friend you are.♥
Aren't you sweet! And delivering it so quickly. Knitting takes me forever.
ReplyDeleteWell done!
Very pretty. I've never done the daisy stitch either. I'll need to give it a try soon.

Ahh, I thought the daisy stitch was crochet when I initially saw this! Looks great, love the stitch with this yarn
ReplyDeleteI thought that stitch looked familiar haha! :) It's a beautiful beanie.
ReplyDeleteHi Nicole, I do have a little stock pile ;) Right now I have my
ReplyDeleteProject of the Week in the works. Head on over to the blog to see a sneak peek.
Be Well
