Knitting - Odessas!
So far I've made two Odessas.
My first one is this.
Yarn: Rowan Classical Yarns Cashsoft DK 507 Savannah
Beads: TOHO 4mm Beads No.141
Cast-on: Twisted German Cast-on.
I followed the instruction.
And my second is this.
Yarn: Rowan Classical Yarns Cashsoft DK 514 Navy
Beads: TOHO 4mm Beads No.21
Cast-on: Twisted German Cast-on.
I followed the instruction but added 10 more stitches.
How I love this cap! And how I look ugly in these caps with my too large jowls;-(
But I just can't stop knitting Odessa. The pattern is exteremely fun to knit. And I love knitting with beads. I once tried to knit a beret on ROWAN MAGAZINE. It was knitted with Yorkshire Tweed 4ply and a lot of beads. I really love that but at the same time I was afraid that it might be very heavy with tons of beads.
I asked for some advices at ROWAN Yarn store and got one. A lady in the store told me it would be pretty without beads.
Well, I thought so, too. But still I couldn't give up beads.
Now Odessa, you don't have to worry about the weights. It is light as if there's no bead at all.
By the way, I love the whorl of Odessa.
Here's one.
And one more.
Now I'm thinking of knitting a scarf or two to go with my Odessas.
I'm looking for some patterns. It would be just plain K1P1 or K2P2 ribbing, though.

Your Odessas are fabulous, and I'm so happy that you're considering making even more! Would you like them to appear in the gallery?

They're wonderful! Have you made them for yourself or are they presents?
