First of all, let’s test this picture thing:

This is an old picture of Swallowtail (that isn’t much farther along now than in this picture) but I didn’t want to go to the trouble of doing new pictures if they aren’t going to show up in the post.

I’ve been pretty diligently working on Icarus. So much so . . . → Read More: Checking in Read more »

Finally on the site!

By kelbel, on July 9th, 2008%

I’ve been lurking until now, reading and admiring everyone’s posts. No more! Here’s my additions for Summer 08:

The Springtime design by Marianne Kinzel. Started June 6th, so it was before the season officially began, but I am definitely working on it in earnest now! This is an easy design, but it does take a fair amount . . . → Read More: Finally on the site! Read more »

Still At It!!

By thislittlepiggyknits, on July 6th, 2008%

Thought I’d drop in with a progress report. I’m on my 4th clue on the Anniversary Mystery Shawl. I’m using a lace weight wool in the color “lettuce”. Right now that’s all it looks like…… a head of wilted lettuce!!

I’m on the first of the Spring Mystery Stole. I’ve frogged this 3 times. I used green . . . → Read More: Still At It!! Read more »

Getting started with Seasons of Lace

By knitsbyteri, on July 3rd, 2008%

Although I have a number of lace projects going (you can’t have just one), I finally have two that I actually started after June 21st so I feel I can include them in this event.

Please bear with me because I am not a blogger (even if I did software design for more than 20 years and . . . → Read More: Getting started with Seasons of Lace Read more »

Ready to Start – Finally!

By Duckette, on June 27th, 2008%

Okay, I’m revved up and ready to knit for a Season of Lace. I wanted to be fair and start and a logical place in my knitting. I’m currently working on the Slow Bee I lace shawl (I guess I’m slower than a Slow Bee though). Anyway, I had 4 lines to go to finish Clue . . . → Read More: Ready to Start – Finally! Read more »

Showing Off

Okay, I’m a slow knitter and I have kids at home for the summer so I have no delusions of winning most yards knit or anything like that… but I do like to show off what I have done….

Here is the Tropicana lace scarf i started on my retreat last weekend with the Knitting Fairy.

Almost too late…

By madcraftermom, on June 21st, 2008%

… but I heard about this yesterday and signed up last night. Whew! I guess I’m too late to join any competitions, but not to participate and be eligible for raffles?

I’m fairly new to lace, but I’ve just started the Goddess Knits Anniversary Shawl and finished clue #1 last night. I’m currently stalking the Yahoo group . . . → Read More: Almost too late… Read more »

Pulling together my projects

By Shell, on June 21st, 2008%

Hi all! I was so excited to learn about this KAL, hopefully, I’ve slid in under the deadline! I have an extreme case of startitis when it comes to lace, so I am hoping to work through some of my WIPs for my summer of lace:

intro

By kristineknits, on June 20th, 2008%

Hi all! I’m Kristine, and this is not my first foray into lace knitting. It is my first foray into the world of KAL’s, especially those comparable to the knitting Olympics (sadly, I was in law school and couldn’t participate). It is also my first foray into Nieblings and knit doilies.

I’m still trying to pick out . . . → Read More: intro Read more »
