I went to one of the local markets with my friend that sell bric a brac and new and used good. I found 2 slightly used balls of 12 ply wool for $5. One in greens and one in pinks. My friend commented that she really loved the colour of the green ball. So I made her a beanie out of it. I used a Jo Sharp pattern that makes a reversible beanie. I gave it too my friend last weekend and she loved it. The beanie is so think and warm.
