I finished it!
I like this photo, even though the colour isn’t that great. These are more representative:
I finished it about 11.45pm and immediately took photos in the hall upstairs! As I type this I am still wearing it with my nightie! I LOVE it.
Pattern is Sophora by Woolly Wormhead; yarn is Ziggy Stardust fingering by I Knit or Dye London. 2.5mm circulars and DPNS.
Aaaannnnd, I mentioned that I had broken my yarn buying ban in the Countess Ablaze online store at the weekend. Well, this arrived today!
How GORGEOUS is that? And a lovely project bag too.
My friend Sam gave me this gorgeous bunch of flowers today:
I also took this picture of Lucy that I can’t resist sharing, She’s my Mum’s springer x golden retriever.
’Do you like my bone Auntie Claire?’ And I can’t leave the beautiful Mollie out!

Divine hat. I’d also wear it all the time 🙂

It is stunning. I must have in any wardrobe!
Lucy and Mollie are soooo sweet. 🙂 I miss not having my dog around when at work. We sure make up for it when I get home.

Oh wow, it’s turned out beautifully! I love the intricacy of the tiny needles and fine yarn. I can see why you couldn’t resist the new pink yarn – such a heavenly colour.

Love the hat and your new yarn looks gorgeous – no wonder you broke your yarn buying ban 🙂
Goes without saying really that the dogs are the stars of the post though 😉 x
