I love giving handmade gifts. Wish I could manage to make more of them. This year I have given a cowl and a shawl away.
The cowl is knitted in Pus alpaca. So soft and light and a dream to wear.
The pattern is Millwater and I have of course knitted some of them. They are great gifts, easy to knit and still looks quite lovely.
The other gift is a shawl knitted in yarn from Holst: Supersoft and Titicana alpaca.
I was really surprised how little yarn I used for the shawl. 80 grams of supersoft and about 60 grams of Titicana.
The shawl is light and soft. I put it into a tote bag and it was a great success.
So, off eating chocolate and rest. Enjoy your christmas days where you are.
