Sorry I haven't posted here in a while ... but today I have finally photographed two things: A chemo hat I made for a friend (used Lion Brand ConnonEase) and a sweater I photographed before it was blocked. Yup ... finally had it blocked, and I love the way it looks. Now I have to move my a** and finally mail it -- since I won't be getting there (Florida) until Thanksgiving.
I have been working on a filet lace shawl (triangular) I am planning on gifting to my daughter, but haven't told her about it yet. I am using bedspread cotton I found in the attic ... probably older than she. I love the design -- which is a small all-over pattern of flowers. It's totally different, which might be why I am so fond of it. Although I didn't design this pattern, I did rewrite it since the graph was almost totally illegible. Hopefully I will finish this, since it was a total horror figuring the pattern. I am going to take 60% creative license on this one! I'll post a photo of it as soon as I get a chance.
I am also currently working on the Shapely Shawlette, designed by Judy Pascale, using a cotton tweed yarn -- also found in the attic. How did I accumulate all this stuff ... and why don't I remember where or when? Perhaps the elves JeanMarie is always accusing of doing my work for me have been hiding these yarns up there to surprise me?
