Odessa hat


The fabulous Silk Sleeves from One Skein are finished. They took less than two days and were fun to knit. Simple and stylish. The sleeves are a gift for a friend who loves them and will look fabulous in them. This was a great portable project - very light and an easy to memorise pattern. I would make these again.














I also finished the Odessa hat last night - having got quite a lot of knitting done at work yesterday ( lucky me !) This hat is totally wonderful. It was interesting to knit and looks amazing. It also took less than one ball of Rowan Cashsoft DK which makes it an economical project. It would make a great gift. Little Millie has claimed it for her own already so I am planning to start another for myself immediately.
