Mini Ribbed Lace Bolera

This is a really quick knit :mrgreen: . I finished it in just two days time. However, I didn’t realised that I will not have enough yarn and I don’t plan on buying an extra ball just to finish the top to the recommended measurements because, firstly, these 2 balls of yarns were bought many moons ago, so I might not be able to find the same yarn in the same dye lot and secondly, I’m on a yarn diet. I haven’t bought any yarns since December last year and I intend to keep it that way, knitting from my stash. Therefore, the end result is that the bolero isn’t as long as the original version. Mine’s really like a mini version.

Pattern: Ribbed Lace Bolero
Yarn: 2 balls of Spotlight Dashing in White
Needles: 5 mm and 6 mm

    Although it’s not as long as you want it, the bolero still looks good on you!
