Just LOVE Them Roses! *lol*

Another Rose hat has been born. This is my third contribution in the summer-contest at Strikk innom!



This hat is knitted up in Dolce from Cascade yarns. A beautiful soft blend of alpaca, merino and silk! It`s not that easy to see on the photos, but it shows off the cables and pattern very well.



























Pattern: Rose Red by Ysolda Teague.
Usage: ca. 94 gr. Dolce from Cascade yarns on 4mm needles.



And here is... Oh, well - yes, it IS another Rose hat... *lol*
I just love this pattern - it`s so well written, and the hats turn out beautiful in every yarn I choose! What`s not to love? =)


This one is knitted in Kirkcaldy 2-ply wool bought at Malsen og mor. This was ment as a gift, but I like it so much I might just keep it... *lol*


































Pattern: Rose Red by Ysolda Teague.
Usage: ca. 75 gr. Kirkcaldy`s 2-ply wool on 4mm needles.

Kauni! =)

Here`s another shawl of Love knot`s! =)
This is my second contribution in the summer-contest at Strikk innom!

I used the same edging as last time - and I really like the way it turned out! =)
Kauni is a traditional wool-yarn with amazing colour-changes! It will hopefully get a bit softer after washing.



Pattern: Felisi`s Englemaskesjal
Usage: ca. 75 gr. Kauni Effektgarn bought at Strikk innom! A 2mm crochet-hook.
