thanks, laurie

I wish I could knit one for me! Good luck with it. As for lace knitting….. it has been a passion of mine since I first discovered it. I don’t do it nearly enough. It is very rewarding, although it takes a lot of time. I spent 5 months on a shawl last year and am so excited the weather has turned so I can wear it.

She is AS knitter extraordinaire from here and abroad. She knows her yarn! Love Klaralund. And the lace knitting looks fab.

Yeah, that pink stripe just bugged me – if it had gone to a darker color next, I wouldn’t have minded – I think after matching the sleeves up fairly well, it stands out more to me than it would have if I’d gone random with the sleeves, LOL…the price to pay…

Can’t remember the exact name, Rowanspun? Anyway, their colors are very pretty, too. Fireballhead is using some for the IK felted floral bag.
