More Balls to Stash

I have been having a lovely time visiting Spotlight and gathering a collection of commercial yarns, some on special sales to ease the budget, to have on hand for
that time I think, Yes, I want to make a scarf or vest or beanie amd just a little different to my spun yarn. After visiting the Alice Springs Beanie Festival I was inspired with many of the creations, not that I would copy and any detail that I saw has disappeared from my brain, now just the memory of colour and texture.
I also purchased a pair of scissors to replace that were taken from me at the airport as I forgot I had them in my hand luggage. Silly me. I just love sharp embroidery scissors, just cant have too many.Posted by Picasa

Winter Designer Beanies

This beanie I hand knitted using a varigated brown and cream yarn used double and with a bobble yarn knitted in a few rows to give it texture.
How unusual is this Tam beanie I created using a black band and for the cap of the beanie I used a lovely grassy green and black multi dye yarn I dyed myself with hi-lights of black ,brown and green.
All these Winter Beanies I have knitted for the shop in Bellingen. NSW. "Soul Weaving"
Used Acrylic yarn and mixes. Just a little different from my Hand spun Yarn in earlier posts.
