While the cashmere scarf announced in last post keeps on leaving this house during decent light-time for photographing, I had no choice but to finish this other little thing. This ist the first FO of 2007!! Only 2 more to go and I may cast on for something new!
Tam-tam:
details:
yarn: Istex Lett-lopi - slightly more than 50 g for grown-up version.
pattern: sunflower tam by Norah Gaughan from Knitting Nature
needles: 5mm 40 cm circ. and 5 mm dpns for top.
This was really much easier to knit than I first imagined - the pattern looks so intricate! I mean the way the pattern incorporates the decreases so they get invisible - yet clearly everything gets smaller! I was never clever at maths so these things really impress me!!
Then we have the FO - forecast of the day!:
My guess is that this one:
and these ones:
are next up on the FO-heaven. Every now and then I also put in a stitch or two at this one:
So no worries! - I keep busy!!!

love that sunflower tam, and the yarn you've chosen is gorgeous! I can see you've made quite som progress on Ofelia. I have reached the armholes on mine, and I swear it's the slowest knit i have ever tried :gasp: |
