I finished a couple of personal projects during the past week. The Top-Down Trapeze Pullover by Knitting Pure & Simple, aka In the Pink and the Brynja Beret by Helene Magnusson. The HiKoo Kenzie blocked nicely for the sweater and has lovely drape. I chose three colors of Noro Silk Garden Solo for the beret. With the textured yarn I went down a needle size for the ribbing and then to the larger needle for the body of the hat. There was even a bit of the main color left. I immediately wore it when we went out to cut the Christmas tree and then wet blocked it overnight. It is so nice and soft and
warm.

I added length and tapering to the sleeves. |

Pretty soft colors for winter. |
