Red tweed beret from Interweave knits. I started this on my holidays hoping I would be wearing it for Xmas but dam it I ran out of wool even though the pattern stated only one skein is needed for the small size. It was sooooooo close to being finished!It made me think that maybe I knit to lose. I watched my mum knit and noticed that she wound the yarn 3 times around her finger where as I only do it once (we both knit European style).
I've been trying this out and I've seen a real improvement with my stitches they all look so even.
I'm pretty happy about this I may undo all my knitting I've done to date and start again!
Do I hear the sound of crickets? No I would never do that ....all though...no just kidden..Its great to have learnt something new from my mum.

Undo everything you've ever knitted???!!! Surely not!!! I am a very tight knitter. Sometimes I would have to knit with giant needles to get the correct tension: it's a good thing I like maths and can adjust the numbers!! The tweediness is very nice!!
