Lace
I need it... I want it.... I crave it....oh how I love lace.

I made two swatches for MS3 (mystery shawl 3). I'm not sure which one I like better. The top one is Lorna's Laces Helen's Laces in Cedar and the bottom one is Knitpicks' Shadow in Oregon Coast. (the same yarn I used to make the cherry leaf pattern shawl from VLT). I'm tempted to make a third swatch in Knitpicks' Alpaca Cloud, but somehow I think that would just prolong the decision making process as well as make the choice even harder. I also need to learn to be better at blocking. blah.

edit: I've decided on using the Lorna's Laces (top one in the picture) as the yarn I'm going to use for this project.



I started the Hanami lace shawl. This is knit in Knitpicks' Alpaca Cloud in Smoke. This yarn is so incredibly soft. It was early in the morning when I took this picture, sorry it's not that great. This is 30 rows into the pattern....I'm 8 rows from finishing the first chart for the first set of repeats.



Did I mention how much I love lace?
