project #2 ....Seascape Stole
True geranium ..tough as old boots but pretty, pretty .
(terrible photo ..unblocked and odd colour)Originally knit in a lace weight charcoal but was turning out to small ..more scarf size .
Re-cast with a charcoal Jo Sharp silk georgette (5 ply )...much nicer ..so soft and snuggly .. and the right width ..I'm on the home straight .....altho caught in the "nearly there but not quite's "
I f I sat down and applied myself instead of looking for a new project..Seascape would be done ...
The Far Afield vest from Ik recent issue has tickled my fancy ..I have a green 12 ply ...toying with another colour from Bendigo as I'm not sure I want a green( heavy ) vest..maybe charcoal grey as well ....
I saw a women down the street during Winter wearing a long grey wrappy type vest ..instant knit envy ....
Labels: long lacy summer, this is lace

That pattern looks very pretty. Well done.
Do I see the beginnings of an Intentions 2009 List happening there?
