It is fun trying new products, so when I received Red Heart Yarn’s new Boutique Twilight yarn in the mail I was excited to get started. It is a unique fiber with a little bit of sparkle and vibrant color.
At first I thought I would make a cowl, but then I decided to see if it would work for a beanie. I LOVE how it turned out.
