After switching yarn, I finally figured out how to do the lace pattern. Now I can keep practicing and make a scarf, I guess?

304m Ramboulet
Beanie complete. After blocking it turned out comically large and got tossed in the dryer with some wet towels. Its now appropriately sized. 😅

28.08.2025 12:31 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I spun this yarn, its a mostly worsted weight Merino. Not super consistent thickness. This was before my friend showed me some great spinning tips. Im knitting a beanie for my husband.

Fully blocked and ready to wear! I learned why you should swatch. The yarn definitely stretched more than I expected. However, I'm super happy with the result. Finished just in time for Autumn!
