Fairisle Berets are my favourite 'in between' project at the moment, I can finish one in 2 days.There is something meditative and mandala-like about them.I use recycled cashmere for mine.The Sarah Dallas pattern in her Vintage Knitting book is nice, but there are many others which I am trying out in different yarns and colourways.This one is a present for a volunteer I used to work with at a large care home.I bought some yarn in these colours from Ally Pally but despite a laundering it is rather scratchy.So I might do a dog sweater with it!
