green tam

I bought a new grey jacket, and suddenly I needed a green new hat.
Because red hair plus green hat equals fabulous.



The color is more true in the photo taken with the flash, but the pattern shows better in the other two.
Pattern: Sunflower Tam from the book Knitting Nature.
Yarn: Garnstudio Alpaca held double
Changes: Ribbing done with twisted knit stitches, and the "cabled stitches" were done "my way" rather than the way the pattern suggested. I just like it the way I like it.

dwarves


The first four dwarves from the fairytale about Snowhite found their way to my Etsy shop!
I found this old jigsaw in an auction and I love it so much!
Only four brooches done so far, but the prince, the crone and the others will get on there eventually. I just need to resupply!
Go check it out!
