I thought I’d pop up the photos of the finished baby jumper I’ve been knitting with in the new Merino Flash from Katia. The 0-6months jumper literally only went into the third ball for about a third of the second sleeve (grrr).
So in a bid to be more aware of my ever expanding stash I decided to knit the accompanying hat. Now I only have a little bit of the yarn left and a much clearer conscience.
Not sure that button is in the centre now though? I’m sure it was when I first sewed it in.
Happy Knitting!
Confessions of a Fibre Strumpet 
This looks great, I saw it in the shop with you last Friday, I love the detail across the top of the sleeves and shoulders. Could I suggest a little Innocent hat with the left overs?
I got the blue / green version of the same wool and made the side buttoning puerperium cardi. I’ll take a picture to show you once the buttons are on [and I’ve given it to the new parents]. The colours are very rich, the colour runs are not as long as the colourway you have used and it knits beautifully. [I got two balls of the wool and knit it extra long , had enough for two innocent hats and some to sew in the buttons left over].

Hi Dairiona
I look forward to seeing your little Puerperium cardi as I absolutely adore the design and think the yarn will look beautiful made up into one.
I also like your idea of using the remaining little bit of the Merino Flash to make an Innocent Smoothie hat or 2. Sounds like a plan.
Happy Knitting!
