knittingYou know that nagging feeling when you've finished something neat but haven't gotten around to taking a picture of it?
I fixed that problem today! :D
Alpaca Seas, finished in September
This was my most complex and fiddly lace project to date, including work in-pattern on the wrong side. Of course, by the time I finished it (with only a few yards to spare after binding off!), it seemed like a perfectly straightforward and simple pattern, hahaha. It's so pretty!
3/4 Shaelyn, finished in February
This was a fun and simple project, easy to memorize and work on without referring to the pattern--a perfect antidote to High Seas. I modified the pattern to have 3 panels rather than 2, making it a triangle-shawl-and-a-half that drapes nicely in the front. It's less stylish but very comfy, good both for keeping warm in a drafty New England apartment and layering under a coat in a blizzard :)
