A year of lace
I am in love with lace knitting. I used to want to knit socks all the time (and I still love socks) but right now it is all about the lace. I am finally at a point in my knitting journey where lace patterns are really starting to make sense to me. Now I’ve done feather and fan and other small lace patterns on
socks. (Lace socks - double the love!) But I have always wanted to knit intricate lace shawls and such. I missed some lace KAL’s last year and sadly sat on the sidelines wishing I could be part of the fun. I got very excited when I managed to sign up for Mystic Waters before membership was closed but was not able to cast on with everyone else. I am still behind on that one. I have completed 228 rows out of 367. Someday it will be done. I hope.
I also managed to get signed up for the Secret of the Stole II. Clue #1 came out Friday and I finished it on Friday! How’s that for excitement? I’m using Malabrigo Lace weight yarn in the Dark Earth colorway. I’m knitting the stole on size 4 Addi Lace needles. I am totally in love with this stole too. I couldn’t stop knitting Friday until I had finished it. Now I can’t wait for the next clue to come out. At least I have my Mystic Waters to work on. And I’ve now realized that I never uploaded a picture of SotSii to my server. I’ll try to do that tonight.
I have also signed up for the Mystic Light KAL. Sign-ups are still open for that one. You can visit Anna’s website for more information on sign-ups. Mystic Waters is so lovely that I can’t wait to see how this one turns out! Looks like I’ll be knitting lace for a good long time!
