……..a mini version of my hat from Mirasol Book 5 for my niece.

I love being able to share knitting with others.
I used to work in a haberdashery and I always encouraged the customers to come back with their finished garments.
I loved seeing how the colours we had chosen together worked in the garment.

I remember one knitter, who really wanted a striped tank top but we couldn’t find a pattern anywhere, all we could find was a plain st st tank top, so I told her she could simply do a striped pattern with this. She looked at me in fear, she didn’t believe she could do that.
I helped her and I still remember her coming into the store wearing her striped tank top. She was so excited and proud that she coudl create her own garment.

Anyway, as I mentioned this season I managed to knit for my family.
And I love sharing so here is a mini version of my hat from Mirasol Book 5.
My niece refused to wear a hat in this cold weather, but she always tried my hat on. So I thought I would knit her a mini version and she wears it every time so goes out!

(I tried to get a good picture of my neice but she was refusing to smile to the camera!)

















My mum also knitted her Cooper from Noro Family. Not even two years old and she is in hand knitted designer items!???!
