Well, I've finished the top half of what I hope will be a beautiful outfit for some little girl. This sweater has been transformed from two skeins of Skein Yarn, in Fig. It's a beautiful, soft and fluid yarn, made from merino wool and cashmere. I can't say enough about this yarn. It was such a pleasure to knit with and I will definitely be making more sweaters in the future using this yarn. The edging on the ruffled collar is from Handmaiden, a silk and seacell yarn--nice sheen and draws out the subtle golden tones in the main sweater. It's likely a size 6-8 (little girls) and has dyed shell buttons. Now, just to make the perfect skirt or dress to match! (Hint: it will have a border of gold at the hemline to match the sweater- Perfect!) Stay tuned!
Hand-made items for babies, kids and adults, with style, function and quality.
