Instant style and sophistication

I knitted myself a beret this weekend. Its the last minute purl beret from Knit and Tonic.



Knitted in the recommended yarn: Noro Kochoran in Colour #1. The Kochoran is a wool/silk/angora blend and knits to a lovely soft fabric. It does not, however, have much memory so the rib is quite loose. No idea why I'm pulling such a silly face!




It took one day of knitting and will be ideal for my trip East!

Very nice hat! It looks so soft and pretty. And it only took you a day to knit? I'm impressed! I just finished a hat for my husband and it took me weeks to knit. Ugh. Well, it was 7 stitches to the inch.
