Malabrigo Love and Crochet Goodies...

Ahhh Malabrigo...


Now I know this yarn is the most blogged about yarn in the history of yummy yarns but let me tell you... there is a reason! This stuff is just so darn nice and squishy and yummy and Oh! It's just too good!!


I'm bustling in the nights to get some crochet beanie's whipped up for one of my bestie's niece's and for the first beanie I am using more of the gorgeous Malabrigo worsted weight (like what I used for the Little Red Beanie not too long ago).


This time I'm making the little girls beanie in a hot fuschia pink and the colour just pops! Perfect to adorn a little girls little head this winter!

(Below, Beanie # 1, still a WIP)

Because my friend D loved the last beanie I made for her she wanted another 2 made using The Dainty Daisy's shell stitch beanie pattern again, and I'm loving this pattern even more everytime I use it! It's a winner for sure - so quick, easy and effective!

So tonight I am hoping to have beanie # 1 done and # 2 in motion.


Stay tuned for finished piccies!!

How has your week been so far?

  3. Jodie has just helped me out with some beautiful Malabrigo. It has a reputation for a reason. Pity we can't get the same in beautiful Aussie merino.
    Love your beanies
