Let the Summer Begin!
The Summer of Lace, that is!
Since I'm feeling kinda lacy, I've joined ranks with Wendy & co. Click on the Summer of Lace button on the right if you want to know what all the fuss is about!
My lace projects:
1. The Wool Peddler's Shawl from Folk Shawls--a gift for a friend--in Lamb's Pride Superwash (Shane's Red). While I'm waiting for the yarn (had to be ordered), I'm working on...
2. The Viennese Shrug from the Summer '05 IK. You know, the one in this picture?
Yarn? Svale. In Black. Which may not turn out to be the best choice, but I love the way it feels. And I want to wear this thing this summer.
3. The Kimono we talked about last time. It's freaking gorgeous, isn't it? Of course, it will have to wait for 1 & 2 to be done, so I'm guessing that it will make its debut early July. Can I wait that long?
Sigh. So much lace...so little time.
On Monday--Yarn Sale!

I am definitely going to have to make a shrug sometime soon. I suffer from perpetually cold upper arms.

I love the look of a shrug and this pattern caught my eye too. I thought it seemed a bit bulky under the arm --- do you think that is just the way it's fitting the model?

I think that will be stunning in black. And I love Svale...
