And That's A Wrap

 



Remember the breaking? mothdamaged? silvery grey yarn that I was using on a  project that had been languishing unfinished for years? Well the project is now done and blocked and ready for wear.

This is the very simple lace pattern that frustrated me so much.


Honestly, how hard could it be? 

In some ways I made a basic error using this yarn for this pattern because the basic raison d'etre of the pattern is a technique which makes the holes in the lace very sharply defined, so using a fluffy yarn rather defeats the object. That said I love it now it's finished; it's warm and light and fluffy and I hope it's not too long before I get a chance to wear it. Crossing fingers for the projected outdoor Scottish Opera Falstaff in July.
