A box full of goodies arrived :D as do orders from friends :)

I got an order from a friend to knit the same dress I made earlier.
So I ordered the wished color for her in a nice Drops Karisma yarn.


Drops Karisma is a very soft and slippery yarn.
I knit it on a steel round needle, but I think a bamboo round needle is better for this yarn!
Well I do not have the bamboo round needle in the same size, so I am good with the steel one. :)


 I got my first order line!
1. I knit the nice dress for my friend:


2. I knit a jacket for an old school friend, just after a picture she gave me. I hope I´ll manage through it.

3. I got an order for an bolero I made. 

4. And all between this I knit for a charity. 
I knit basic woolly hats and mittens for poor people and give them for free of course!

This is my first Poncho I ever crocheted.
I made this last year in september


I love the color combination.
The crochet is a very easy and fast.
Unfortunately I do not know where I got the patter from...

It is perfect over your winter coat or a sweater!

the new woolly hat




So I am at my new project.
Last winter I bought this nice yarn from Novita.



So I use 2 colors. White and soft violet with glitter.
Maybe the yarn is a bit too thin for my woolly hat, but I wanna try it.



It´s nice to have a woolly hat for not so cold days.
You know in Finland winter can be very strong and you need thick clothes to stay warm.


Slowly the pattern grows and I love the color combination!
Here a closer pic of the texture.


And now it´s actually looking like that.

Stay tuned for new pictures and for the final product!

the wolly hat







A fast knit!





BUT!



I tried the socks-needles for the first time.
I never made socks before but now I tried the needles in finishing the woolly hat.

It was a kind of strange feeling to knit with 5 needles.
(4 on the knit and 1 to work with)




In the end it was pretty easy...





... and the woolly hat turned out very well!


A nice hat for the winter-time! :)
