Feeling Shawly
Wow, thanks everybody for all the nice comments on the baby sweater! Imagine me all pink and blushy. I think that I can safely say that I have sufficient motivation to get that pattern written up.
In other news, we got out and took some shots of the Flowerbasket Shawl yesterday. Let me tell you, alpaca shawls are not for 84 degree days. And how is it 84 degrees already anyway? I don't have enough time to do a whole FO post right now, but I thought I'd quick give you some pre- and mid-blocking shots to keep you occupied and marveling about the miracle of lace.
hello, I am lumpy.

You tease! Love the color, is it going to be a shawl for you or a special someone?

I have been lurking, but the suggestion that you might write up that baby sweater pattern is enough to bring me out of hiding. That is the sweetest, most captivating design I have seen in a very long time. It truly took my breath away when I saw the post. I would really love to try my hand at one, even though I don't currently have a recipient in mind. Worthy of putting in a future grandchild trousseau trunk, I say.
