Lace…something new to try.

Because I’m apparently not having enough trouble trying to remember the pattern on the sock, I decided I need to try lace [again] now.


Well, actually, I was mostly curious about the new lace Addi’s and I found a good place to purchase a set. I also had recently acquired Victorian Lace Today AND the yarn was a good price (also found while shopping for the needles at “Little Knits.”) So, all of that added up to a must-buy situation. You understand, right?

They arrived with lightening speed. Wow, can you say “great service?”

I had the lamp at the ready and the ball winder hooked up, so, I also decided to try the “lampshade/swift” idea I had read about recently on the Knitlist yahoogroup.

It worked (counterclockwise)! I do fear that it’s a bit too tightly wound - so since it’s not good to leave it sitting for long times, all tightly wound like that, I cast on the first shawl I’m determined to make from the book. And so see…it only made sense that I started another project, right? I thought so too!
