Notes

This is a sample that I’m working up for Rose with her incredibly luscious MadTosh DK. I think the colourway name, Calligraphy, is absurd. I would make that colour a deep blue, like very special ink. This colour makes me think of iceburgs or crystal formations. Take the pattern name, fountain, and the colour and you get the name for my project. I’m aware, of course, that the crystal fountains are in the Big Rock Candy Mountain, but I’m going to use a quote about a different mountain fountain if you don’t mind :o)

Some will fall in love with life

And drink it from a fountain

That is pouring like an avalanche

Coming down the mountain

Finished finished finished - and I LOVE it! I can’t wait to take it over to show Rose and do a little modeling session with her.

the start of the round shifts 1 stitch to the left after the first and second lace repeat
