Notes

Beautiful sample that showed some simple lacework around the edge, so I bought both yarn and pattern. Quite the splurge! Worked on it the summer of 2012, and realized that I didn’t quit in time to work the size medium, and don’t think I have enough yarn for the large. Full Stop until I figure out what to do…. rip it back to the correct # of stitches to do the Medium size, or continue to # of stitches in a multiple for the lace edge pattern and hope for the best….????
I was encouraged by Kaileen Shanahan to rip it back, so she helped me to pick up the stitches at the correct row, and RIP it back…. then I got started on the lace edging. It went pretty quickly after that!

I love it! Soft and light, yet I think it will be warm enough to make a difference when I wear it!
