Lime.

I love this color. Sadly I can't wear it because the color of my skin is like Snowhite's. So all I can do is knit something lime for our son or for my husband.

Hedda.

When Vilma introduced Hedda I instantly fell in love with the pattern. I wanted to knit a cap for my dear class mate and was at first going to knit Virna but found myself kind of tired with it (sorry Jatta, it's a nice pattern but I have knitted it 12 times!) so I chose this. Unfortunately, it only fits our 4-year-old son.

Better luck next time! I won't forget this pattern.

For my husband's other brother - he wanted the same kind of cap as the other one got. Thank God my husband (in the picture) wanted this in different color!
