done, and done.

last wednesday night, at ncb, a little request was made of me...
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.
Thanks Nicole, what a great friend you are.♥

Aren't you sweet! And delivering it so quickly. Knitting takes me forever.

Well done!

Very pretty. I've never done the daisy stitch either. I'll need to give it a try soon.
Blessings,
Betsy

Ahh, I thought the daisy stitch was crochet when I initially saw this! Looks great, love the stitch with this yarn

I thought that stitch looked familiar haha! :) It's a beautiful beanie.
