more attempts at lace-based sanity

You might remember this skein of Seasilk in glacier. It's been staring at me a long time.


Yesterday, I cast on for a Lace Wings shawl [scroll down] -- pattern available only at Lettuce Knit. I made a few changes to the pattern to suit my taste [I added a central rib so I could use YOs instead of KFBs to increase] but otherwise, am happily knitting along on a pattern of someone else's design. It makes me feel even better than the hemp towel does. Sorry, hemp. You're on hold for now.

Seasilk all the time for me, baby.

[I wrote a lot of words this weekend, and yet am not nearly done. If I think about this too much, my brain will make a boomy sound. Instead, I knit seasilk.]
