This is a very satisfying knit
I was so exited when I finished it, that called Rasmus to tell him and then I went around knocking on my friends doors here at the dorm, to show it off!
Pattern: Odessa by Grumperina
Yarn: Evil Angorette, from Anna Belle, 100% Angora,
Skeins: 1×137yds/125m per 25g
Needles: 3mm and 3,5 (I think)
Mods: None, except a handfull of mistakes due to tiny break (one year) of knitting it.
Review: The pearls and the yarn choice made it patience demanding projekt. But I love the end result! And I think I might knit it again sometime, in different yarn. The pattern is very easy to remember.
Originally it was knit just for me, but in end my mom got it for her birthday this sunday
And she liked it!
This is a close-up picture where you can see the pearls and the effect the pattern makes, where it all most looks like the knitting is going in different directions. Very cool! My friend Christian said that it looked like something you could buy at Frederikberg (the posh end of Copenhagen)
The Very beautiful model is Sara Brøns, my very good friend. She has agreed to be my muse on the blog from now on

Tak for din kommentar til min lille bolero til Signe!
Det er en rigtig fin hue, du har strikket. Jeg har mange gange kigget på netop det mønster, men har endnu ikke kastet mig over det.
mvh Mette
