I’m a sucker

for pretty yarns. I had to pick this up at KH, it was on sale!!! One hank of Interlacements Montana:

Best of all though Dolman is done and ready to be blocked and seamed! Yippeee!!! I can’t wait to finish and start wearing it this fall.

And to celebrate this effort I’ve started my next lace project: Paisley Lace Shawl from Interweave Knits Spring 05. I’m using JaggerSpun Zephyr in Cinnabar aka dental floss according to Phyl-Phyl. This stuff is dreamy! Light and very soft.

Now for some color inspiration…my garden

Have a good weekend all!

PS - my sides still hurt from Late Night. Thank you gals!

p.s.s. - starting a shawl with 8 stiches and them moving them to 4 DPNs is just WRONG! thank you for the sanity.

    Dental Floss. I’m merrily knitting my own piece of lace work. Size 8 needles, 4.5 stitches an inch. Much, much less painful. ;-) Can’t wait to see Dolman completed!
    Your garden is pretty!

    Zephyr is just luscious, isn’t it? It feels so darned good on your hands. And I hate the picture of the paisley shawl from that issue of IK. I really wish they’d stop trying to belong on a coffee table and start showing us what things look like.
