I've mentioned a few times the lace piece that I'd been working on for my grandmother for Mother's Day. Well, it went out in the mail on Tuesday to her after I soaked (mmmm, grapefruit Eucalan!) and blocked it. I'm a terrible blocker, but it turned out pretty well. It's 70% Angora, 25% Wool, 5% Nylon, so it's pretty crazy soft and a bit fluffy.
So here it is, for your viewing pleasure. Don't look for any mistakes or you're sure to find them! ;)
As I mentioned in my last post, I'm working on knitting up some wayward yarn from my stash. I just finished a pair of gray tabi (size L) out of the wool/acrylic blend, and my mind just took the gray and wandered the entire time I worked on them. I wanted so badly to pick up and knit another pair of socks that it made it very difficult to finish.
It's not that common that I finish a pair and immediately, like within two minutes, dash to pick out yarn for a new pair, but that's what happened today. The new pair will be gray with a few hot pink stripes. I hate to list two gray pairs in a row, but I can't let this one go!
