Lace, no kidding!

DSC00317.JPG

Javisst, jag har startat ett spets projekt. Det tog lite tid att ta mod till mg och börja på ett nytt spetsprojekt, efter att jag lagt Sampler stole tillfälligt på hyllan. Det är Kimono schalen ur Cheryl Oberles bok Folk shawls, som torde anses vara relativt lätt. Garnet är ett merinoull-silkesgarn, producenten kan jag inte mera påminna mig om, och jag använder stickor 3,5 mm, Clover bambu rundsticka, vars spetsar är lätt trimmade med en nagelfil. Ganska fnuttiga ser mina 3,5 mönsterborder ut, men det ser bättre ut efter pressning.

Oh yes, I have started a lace project. It took some time to get it going after the stalling of the Sampler stole. It is Kimono shawl from Cheryl Oberle’s book Folk shawls. The yarn is a merino-silk blend from a yarn manufacture that right now escapes my memory. I’m using Clover bamboos in size 3, 5 mm, with tips slightly trimmed with a nail file. I have managed to knit about 3, 5 of the 25 pattern repeats.

Ooooooooooh! Such an elegant piece. I just love the look of lace worked in fine yarn. And Clovers are my needle of choice for these kinds of projects! Or Inox bamboos (I don't like Inox aluminum, however) because the tip is so nice and pointy.

Great to see that you are working on lace too. :) It is looking quite pretty already-- good luck with the rest!

Ali ser verkligen bra ut.
Spetsstickning verkat att vara mycket smittosamt:) Jag håller också på att välja modell till någonsorts spetssjal. Vad i all världen skall jag göra med den? Jag är ingen spetstyp. Monica
