With the weather suddenly warming (literally overnight) to the late 20’s here in Johannesburg, I think I finished the warmer knitting just in time.
I finished knitting my grey Alpaca Wrap, and even got some cute labels and a tiny ceramic flower to add to it.
It turned out beautifully. I may keep it around during Spring and Summer even, as we may just have a cool evening so such that I can drape it around me to snuggle up nice and cosy.
These two wrap scarves knitted up in a matter of days. The yarn is amazingly soft and light. If we have another chilly day or two, they will be perfect.
I also received a beautiful package all the way from Slovenia. In the package was awesome treats and goodies, including very fine crocheted earrings. So delicate. I got Slovenian knitting yarn, and the finest crochet cotton I have seen in a very long time. These I have to try, but I will be looking for a very special pattern.
The doily is already in use in my kitchen, it is perfect, and adds a gorgeous splash of summer sun and colour.
