Bolero for oldest daughter




Yarn: Drops alpaca and Drops Kid-Silk


Needles: 4.5mm




I actually ended up knitting two of this bolero. The first one seemed to be a bit too small for daughter when it was finished a year ago. I made another one, which has been ready for a while now. Recently daughter was home and finally could have her bolero, she ended up fitting the one I made first, as the second one was a bit too big.

Loved to knit this scarf. Will definitely make more of it, if I get hold of more of this yarn.
