I'm having no end of problems with my photo host and leave for the train soon, so it is a very rough Finished Object post from me today:
After deciding to 'ditch' a load of my unfinished objects earlier this week, it seemed fortuitous that Spectra was almost the perfect shape for a capelet. A few rows, two buttons and a crochet edging later and it was finished in no time. It doesn't look like much in this picture but Little Miss looks adorable in it - it comes to her elbows and has just enough 'swing' when she twirls around. I'll have to get a modelled picture onto the project notes when I update them properly.
PATTERN: based on Spectra by Stephen West
YARNS: EasyKnits Superwash merino/silk in 'Flamingo'
and Noro Silk Garden Sock (colourway ??)
I'm linking in with Tami's Amis today although I won't be able to visit the other links until after my weekend away with my two oldest friends *squee* - it's been at 8 years and 4 kids since our last weekend away together! Hope you all have a great one... I'm pretty sure I will!!!
It looks amazing. I'm knitting this project at the moment. I LOVE the way the colours transition. I'm being selfish with mine though and keeping it as a scarf!
ReplyDeleteHi Sarah, I love all your projects this week,you've given me lots of ideas. I've bought let's knit because that bunny is so cute and Windward looks great. Hope you have a fantastic weekend. Michelle xx
