More Christmas Knit

I can now share with you the hat I knitted for My Lovely Dad for his Crimbo pressie, it was knit with a bulky alpaca and felt lovely and cosy.

A chunky man hat! 

He seemed to like it.

A Beret Full of Cables

I finished this the other day and have worn it several times to the sound of muchos compliments!

I'd love to show you a pic of me wearing it but here in Belfast I don't have my trusty photog, The Big One.  So til I pluck up the guts to ask one of my cast members of stage management, you'll have to imagine it on.

I can assure you it looks fab...if I say so myself!

It looks really blue here but it's actually a teal colour

Currently Knitting...

Having finished The Big One's Hat (pics coming soon) and the lace shawl I have now cast on a cabled beret...I am kind of ObSeSSeD with hats, in particular berets and cabling so this should be perfect right?

Here's hoping!

I'll show you once it's finished, hopefully I'll love it so much I won't want to take it off...
