Back to Lace Land
Hi all:
Back to lace land after a brief detour to work on a baby gift. I originally joined the KAL to work on a bead/lace combinaton for a shawl (my own design):
I have about 6+" done. However, while working on the baby gift, I heard the siren call of Branching out in the new knitty.com issue. So I started that yesterday as well. I tried laceweight and dk, shown here:
Then I decided I liked the dk one better, it's Royal Fiber Spinnery alpaca in Sea green. Here's a closeup of the lace:
Ever since I did a Charlotte's Web in Poncho format I've been addicted to lace.
I love seeing what everyone is working on! I feel so inspired.

That bead/lace thing melds so beautifully with that multicolour yarn... stunning.
I love the colors in the shawl you're desinging, and how they move thru the stitches. That's going to be one fabulous wrap.
I love the bead/lace combination!
Can't wait to see the finished project.
Just gorgeous...love the green and I love the knitty Branching Out, too. But I do hope you won't abandon your original shawl, either! It's just wonderful.
