Finished...

Laminaria
Version 2, I know I only have one but I knit this twice due to crap dye lots and what not. But I love the outcome. Will I ever wear it, I am not so sure. More pictures here.

The hardest part for me about finishing this is that I have no lace project to go to now, nothing I have been looking at compares to this knit for me. I am a picky lace knitter, I love to knit lace for the sheer challenge of it. I don't really care if I ever wear it or not, but I want it to be fun and I have to really love the pattern. I think I am slowly becoming obsessed with the Herbert Nieblings stuff, it is amazing. Also hard to find patterns and what not for. Just look at this!

I am muddling through some stuff until I can find the next perfect lace knit for me. Suggestions?

First a slight change in the blog location......


I hope the quarterly post does not turn into the semi-annual post. Things have been going on around her, knitting, gardening, puppying and so on. Oh even some dyeing, with wonderful help. Ok I was really helping her.

See that pretty green yard in the back.... I am ready for the garden to just be, water only. All this other stuff is taking away from knitting time.



Progress is being made on many fronts, like Michelle I seem to be all into blankets, fun portable and easy! The Barn Raising and my Modern Log cabin are getting most of the attention lately, mindless I tell you.












And there is the puppy!! He is getting big but still looks like a puppy to me.
