Finishing

So, I finished my green sweater, I need to block it then it will get a little photo shoot, and I finished my dads Christmas socks. I tried to not start anything in the hopes I would be so bored I would clean my apartment but, that didn't quite work out, so I have started my winter ensemble of purple and red accessories, first up is the hat.
I love this yarn, so buy it if you can, it's pricy if you don't think about it. It's cascade Epiphany, which is 60% Alpaca, 20% cashmere, and 20% silk, so it's super soft, with a nice sheen, plus it will be very warm and lightweight. The ball band says it costs $29.99 a skein, so, if I were to make a sweater it would cost over $200, so, I'll keep my eye out for sales. Even just a scarf, hat, gloves combo I am planning, will be a bit pricey. But filled with awesome. The picture is the start of my hat.
