The Heiress has a lovely friend and flatmate, they met on moving in day at the university residence and have been like sisters ever since. The lovely Miss S had planned a visit over the holidays so there was only one thing to do, get out the needles and knit her a Meret of her own. I managed to finish it last night before heading out to an open house with friends, leaving the damp project to block over a dinner plate. Once I got back from walking Deacon this morning, the girls were awake and being ever so accommodating, Miss S modelled her new chapeau. It suits her red-tinted hair perfectly and looks gorgeous with her coat, I love this pattern!

It's so gorgeous. I can't believe you managed to knit another one so quickly! I would love to learn how to knit like that. That's the sort of present you treasure!
ReplyDeleteOoh those are colours after my own heart. I love the brown spectrum. Wish I could knit.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! You are such a wonderful knitter. I really must get some needles out in 2010...
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I can just picture the color with red hair: absolutely perfect. And how brilliant to block it over a dinner plate! K x
ReplyDeleteDanielle, Thank you! Projects that use only one skein of wool are so rewarding as they're quick.
ReplyDeleteVintage Reading, I love those colours as well, my husband laughs at me when I call bright shades 'vulgar'.
verity, There were practically sparks flying from the needles!
Kristina, Thanks so much! The blocking really makes all the difference doesn't it. D x
That's just lovely. I imagine she must have been thrilled with it.
