I couldn’t let a month go by without posting once! It’s turning out to be a very busy summer. I’m feeling a bit weary, to be honest, but am taking some much-needed holiday soon.
The beret is Ysolda’s beautifully organic Rose Red pattern, and was a pleasure to knit. The cardigan (Rambling Rose from Interweave Knits Winter 06) is much closer to being finished than one might assume from the photo.
Now I’m going to fall into bed with a book (Pratchett’s Thud!, which is comfortable and fun and witty, and ideal for my post-11pm brain) and wish the next few weeks away. Bring on lie-ins and lazy afternoons…

This beret is really beautiful ! Superbe, vraiment…
The beret is very flattering, and beautifully knitted. I always thought us girls with curly hair couldn’t wear hats but you’ve inspired me!
melusine_tricote: Merci beaucoup! :)
Piroska: I’m glad you like it – I think the secret is that the beret should not be too tight, otherwise the curls are squashed, and poof out strangely underneath the brim.
Fantastic knits!
Beautiful! I couldn’t agree more about the hat… Yours is lovely.
I love the colour you chose for the beret – it really suits you.
just saw your finished rambling rose on ravelry ~ super gorgeous. and thanks for the cloud link, a few posts down, that was pretty amazing.
glad to have found your blog ~ i’ll definitely be back.
@andrea – Thank you, and I’m glad that someone else likes clouds! :)
