WAAAAHHHHHH!!!

My trellis lace scarf…gone, gone, gone! I should have known better than to work on it while trying to get my 5-year-old to stay in bed. I got distracted, dropped a stitch, then couldn’t figure out where it was and how to pick up again. Mind you, I hadn’t gone far, but I’ve had so little . . . → Read More: WAAAAHHHHHH!!! Read more »

Slow progress

I’ve been desperately trying to finish projects for deadlines so I haven’t been able to concentrate on my lace project (Trellis Scarf). Consequently, I’m only 16 rows into the border design. At this rate, I’ll never finish by September! But I’m happy with how my project looks thus far, and I . . . → Read More: Slow progress Read more »

Kickin’ off!

Yay! I cast on last night (I couldn’t wait!) and got my first two foundation rows of the Trellis Scarf completed. Sadly, I’m having trouble with Flickr; when I try to access my picture folder in order to upload, my browser crashes.

Has anyone knitted the Twilight Lace wrap???

This is going to be my first “real” lace project; I’ve worked on Wisp (from Knitty) so I get the whole y.o. and K2tog thing, but this is intimidating. Should it be? I’ve never done a provisional cast-on. Is that complicated? The thing is, this is what I consider to be gorgeous lace work; it’s not . . . → Read More: Has anyone knitted the Twilight Lace wrap???

My first post…and my first lace!

By emmasfabmom, on May 20th, 2008%

Hi everyone! I’m Shannon (emmasfabmom on Ravelry). This is my first lace project; well, okay, technically it’s my first-and-a-half, as I’ve started Wisp from Knitty. I’m not more than 25% into that so I’m hoping to finish it as well as finishing a new project I’ll start just for this KAL. I don’t know what I’ll . . . → Read More: My first post…and my first lace!
