Friends came to visit from Passau, Germany, and knowing how much trouble I have finding nice wool here, they brought me three balls of this beautiful gray Italian wool (52% virgin wool -- that's 52% more wool than I usually find).
I've started a hat from Catherine Ham's Knitting: 20 Simple & Stylish Wearable for Beginners. For the first time, I'm using the felted join when starting a new ball of wool. It worked like a charm. If you visit KnittingHelp.com you'll see a great little video that explains the felted join. Why didn't I know about this before now?
We've been sightseeing through Prague, and knitting along the way. Should have the hat done any moment.
