And here’s my second attempt at knitting, this time using a 4mm x 40cm circular needle and DK yarn.

The decreases for the top of the head are really clever, and avoid a clump of gathered stitches the top.

The yarn was really soft, and I love how the graduated colours worked out.

It’s got a few booboos, but hey, it was a real learning experience, particularly learning how to handle the circular needles. I really enjoyed making this.
