I have been getting back into crochet lately and wanted to make Doug a quick beanie out of the Lana Grossa Meringo in 4 colors and here is the result. I used 2 colors to make a nice striped pattern just by working 2 rows of 1 color and 2 rows of the other. I ran out of the charcoal and navy so grabbed one each of the chocolate and olive to finish it out which is how it turned into a 4 color beanie. Now I can do another one and use 2 other colors for the finish.This yarn is super soft and fulls nicely with the angora blend and now that he has it I am having a hard time getting him to take it off. Of course isn't that we all want for our projects to become someones favorite to wear?
