Last Minute Stash-Busting

capucine for Kay too

stash-busting

capucine 2 tone

Did I mention that I LOVE knitting this pattern?
It is soooo easy, soooooo quick and soooooo much fun!
I will definitely be making more of these caps.
This is my second Capucine I am making for Kay.
I love the colour combo, I think it works really well together.

This cap took me all of 3 1/2 hours to make from beginning to end - how is that for instant gratification?!!

This is another stash-buster weighing in at 116g.

Add that to the total thus far:

4'067g
116g

    1. Hi Linda,
      I have seen some of the images of the hail, they are amazing, size of Cricket balls! You are having very unusual weather!
      Thinking of you all, thanks for your visit.

    1. Hi Linda,
      I must admit that I am hoping to achieve my goal and finish at least the next project before the end of the year, that will be awesome as then my stash-drawer will only have a couple of balls of yarn left in it. I am very grateful for your challenge, thank you, it has motivated me to move forward in a big way :)
