This is my first crochet in the round project. Was a bit tricky to learn. 5th try lucky! Especially since I chose such fuzzy yarn. It was hard to see the stitches at first. Adorable pattern from Teeny Tiny Crochet book by Catherine Hirst. Green yarn is Opal Hundertwasser and orange is Kauni Effektgarn. Size C/2-2.74mm hook. 10cm of green.

These are a modified version of the Regenbogen socks on Ravelry mainly because I didn't understand the directions and sorta improvised as I went along. Made with Lion Brand Magic Stripes in color 206 Lumberjack Black Pattern and size US2 / 2.75 mm DPNs set of 5 made it easier to manage the short rows.

Lion Brand Aran Hat pattern made with Rowan British Sheep Breeds DK Blueface Leicester and size 4mm US6 DPNs. I changed the top of the hat because I didn't like gathering up 40 stitches. Instead, I continued decreasing 16 sts every other round until only 8 remained and I ended up with a lovely flowery star surprise.

This is the Drops Designs 113-17 jacket with raglan sleeve and pattern on yoke made with Lion Brand Fishermen’s Wool in Natural and Lion Brand Amazing in Mesa colorway on the yoke. This was so much fun to make because the sleeves are short and the interesting knitting on the yoke part came at the end! Plus it actually fits :-D
