27 Moss and cable stitch beret

This beret is a free pattern from Polar Knits. It is called Moss cable stitch beret

26 Slouchy Lace and Cable hat

This hat is another free Ravelry download by Cheryl Beckerich and is known as the Slouchy lace and cable hat. I knitted it in 8 ply wool on 4mm needles in a brilliant orange, but intend to repeat in in other colours as it is warm, an easy fit and quick to knit

25 Lace baby booties and beanies

The lace booties are another free pattern off Ravelry.com. The name of the pattern is Baby booties to match Berry Sweater. It is a quick and easy knit. I teamed it up with a beanie known as the Lace bay beenie, which was created by Laura Jenkins of  bevscountrycottage.com.

I made these for the babies-to-be of two different friends who I used to work with.

24 Eleanor Cowl

This beautiful cowl was made with stash wool. It is a pale blue with a pearly lustre. The pattern was offered free in Ravelry and it is known as the Eleanor Cowl. The pattern was originally featured on Knitty.com

23 Travelling Companions Shawl

This is intended to be a stash buster. It is a triangular version of The traveling-companion shawl posted as a free download on Ravelry by Karen Strauss of Sea Island Studio Designs. It has progressed beyond the photo shown and I added a lace design which wan't in the original. It is currently on the needles...

22 Simple Neck kerchief

This mini scarf was made using a skein of variegated wool bought from the Spinners and Weavers Guild, Melbourne. The pattern was a simple triangular shawl one, based on 'Little Shells'

21 Summerflies

This shawl is also based on a free Ravelry download called Summerflies by Donna Griffin. The original shawl was a bit small (I wanted a shawl that reached to my waist) so I repeated the two lace sections. It was knitted using a beautiful silky wool (Madil Seta Kid) which was a pleasure to work with.

20 Little Shells Shawlette

This little gem is also a free Ravelry download by Holly Griffin-Weidner. Here is the link to the relevant Ravelry page Little Shells - Free Ravelry download. I knitted it using Debbie Bliss raw silk in green.
