This was an exciting project. I loved it! I loved it so much, I suggested that Ann's By Design kit up some mystery projects. I think we're going to do it. Isn't that exciting.
Remember this? And this? Of course you do! This was my Accidental Knit-A-Long. It was so much fun. Having amazingly beautiful yarn, a pattern but not having a clue what it was going to look like was a hoot. I must admit I've never done a Knit-A-Long before. There was just something about only getting a little of the pattern at a time that just didn't light my fire. What if I wanted to knit faster? What if I wanted to go slower? (I must admit that I get a little freaky when I think I'm behind.) I really am quite stubborn about setting my own time frame. This was perfect! The excitement of a mystery but me being in charge. Ouch!!!!!! That sounded pretty bossy. Well, whatever. You get the idea. Now I must admit I am excited about unveiling this Accidental Knit-A-Long. Isn't it beautiful!?!?!?! I love it and may already know who it is going to live with for Christmas. It was beautiful when I finished knitting but it was AMAZING when it was steamed. The name of the pattern is Lines and Lattice Lace and can be purchased on Ravelry. These are the lines. And this is the lattice lace. Everything I knit looks better when Lydia models it, so let's let Lydia do her stuff. See what I mean!?!? Lydia just adds pizzaz to my knitting. Between Madonna (my steamer) and Lydia, my girls just make me look good.
