Knitting finished and lined with fleece. Just needs a pom pom. I’ve got about a metre of yarn left so it’ll have to be a faux fur one.

Really enjoyed knitting this. Pattern was clear to ne so don’t understand the negative comments about it being poorly written.

made with yarn received as part of the Around the World in 80 days Christmas swap 2018.

Hand spun hand dyed, 50% merino, 25% silk, 25% bamboo. Colour noted as Cerise. It’s not cerise but the most yummy raspberry pinkish colour.

Made for wearing when I go to Davis Cup tennis in February in cold climates (or possibly for Christmas cruise 2018 when I’m debating where to go and might end up in the Baltic!).

Just a note following it’s first wearing (some years later admittedly).
Wore in Flam, Norway over Christmas. Fabulous. I must make another. Stayed in placed so much better than a beanie. Now just need a better jacket for the next winter adventure.
