Notes

My husband bought me Victorian Lace Today for a gift. This is my first project from it, and I had him pick out the project and the yarn. I wanted a nice, light summer scarf. I’m also looking forward to showing it off this October at a Victorian studies conference I will be attending.

23/06 - yays! It’s done. Now I have to block, which I love, but… this frees my 3.5mm needles, and today my yarn for Slow Bee II arrived… decisions, decisions…

24/06 - I love the drape of the blocked silk.
