The Ishbel beret and the Veyla gloves were finished and blocked in time for Em to take them to the birthday party on Friday night.
\nUnfortunately, I don’t have pictures of the birthday girl modelling them, so you’ll have to make do with the hurried pics I took before they got wrapped!

\nSpecs:
\nPattern: Ishbel Beret<\/a> by Ysolda Teague<\/a>
\nSize: Medium
\nYarn: Knit Picks Gloss Sock in “Cosmos”
\nNeedles: Knitpicks Nickel Interchangables in 2.75mm and 3.75mm
\nMods: None! It’s perfect as it is.
\nVery happy with the way it came out!

\nSpecs:
\nPattern: Veyla Gloves<\/a> by Ysolda Teague
\nSize: Small
\nYarn: Knit Picks Gloss Sock in “Cosmos”
\nNeedles: Knitpicks\/Knitpro wooden double points in 3mm
\nMods: None!
\nI’m told that they were both very well received, especially as the birthday girl wasn’t expecting a pair of gloves too.
\nI love, love, love the Knitpicks Gloss Sock. Jill sent it to me quite a while back and it’s been marinating in the stash ever since. I wish it were available locally, or that Knit Picks would ship internationally, because I’d buy a tonne of it! I do have a shawl’s worth in the lace – I hope it’s just as nice!
\nIt’s nicely squishy, and the 30% silk adds a nice sheen to it. I don’t know how it would stand up as socks, but for this sort of thing, it’s lovely.
\nSo of course, it was not only well received by the birthday girl, but also enviously coveted by Em. I had been promising her a new pair of gloves for a while, and so I’m doubly a sucker.

\nI’m starting with the beret though. I’m knitting Em’s in Bendigo Luxury 4ply, in Black<\/a>.
\nShimmer has not been neglected.
