I've been knitting. I promise...
...but guess what's exhausting? Life. More specifically, my senior year of college. Yikes. I've said it before, and I'll undoubtedly say it again: sometimes a short post is a happy post. With that, I give you my latest conquest:
Pattern: Bousta Beret by Gudrun Johnston
Needles: US #7 & US #3 Addi Turbos
Yarn: 1.3 skeins Rowan Kid Classic
Time to knit: an extended weekend home (ample knitting time)
Made for: someone special [who deserves a new hat]
Level of love: high--this hat is adorable.
Now, seeing as it's 3:30 in the am here, I'll leave it at that. I'll be shipping this beauty off [with love] by week's end (my hope is that the recipient loves it as much as I do!).
Yawn. Life makes me sleepy...
oh so smooshy! Hope you didn't fall asleep in it!
ReplyDeleteI second your thoughts on the exhaustion of life. Good to see you're still knitting! The hat looks great.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty hat! You have perfect hair for the slouchy beret, by the way :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome- what's your source on beret patterns, by the way? They are always really neat.
ReplyDeleteMore sloppy berets for my queue! You are such an enabler.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I have to say, I'm loving the slouchy hat trend these days. Thanks for introducing me to another great pattern!
ReplyDeletebeautiful hat! looks great on you - should make one for yourself!
ReplyDeleteSo once you graduate (scary thought, I'm sure), will you change the blog name? ;)
