Last year my mother bought me 9 balls of Debbie bliss rialto that was on sale. It was a lovely shade of purple so I said I'd make something for my sisters new baby. So I knitted a tank top, and still had loads left. Since my sister liked the top, I knitted a bolero for my nieces first birthday earlier this month. I still had loads left so I knitted a tanktop for my little one as I thought I didn't have enough for sleeves. I still have 1 ball left. It is the yarn that will not end.
Here's what I did with it:
Birthday bolero
This is a Sirdar pattern, from the baby bamboo book. It has cute bobbles around the edge. They were fiddly, but worth the effort. The colours in these pictures are not a good representation of the yarn colour, the second set of pictures for 'seedling' are closer.
Seedling
This is my own pattern. I think I will need to tweak it a bit before writting it up. I'm not happy with the armhole depth or the neckline.
