The Christmas Stash So Far

Here are a few christmas presents that I've finished for family and friends...

Bolero for my niece, from Debbie Bliss Cathay. I've knitted it in DB Cotton Cashmere which is beautifully soft. As I am not a fan of sewing up the finished pieces, this was great. The body was knitted as one piece (yippee!) and while the trim had to be knitted seperately, it was nowhere near as painful as I thought it would be.



Jumper for nephew, from Rowan Babies. This may or may not be the pattern called "Rupert", or was that the scarf? It's made from Rowan Wool Cotton which is beautifully soft. (Unlike the damnable Rowan Denim which I'm currently sandpapering my fingers with for "Solo").





Socks for Mam. These are all made from an Opal free pattern. The yellow pair are Opal - can't remember the name. The pink ones are also Opal - Rainforest Flamingo and the blue ones are Regia 4ply in Atlantic.

I love socks... minimal sewing up!
