Jewellery Holder and a new Hat :)

Just a quick post to show off my latest FO`s,

firstly a jewellery holder as Im fed up of searching through boxes to find the other earring !

And my new hat, its made from a gorgeous mohair/poly mix yarn that i got in a mixed lot from ebay, its super soft. Ive made it into an oversized beret as thats the style that tends to suit my face :)

And heres a close up of the hat showing the rainbow colour pallette, very pretty :)
