• On the needles

  I am knitting this simple lacy scarf/shawl, with a hand-dyed mohair yarn that I bought at the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival in May.  The pattern was free; it is called a Lacy Loop Scarf.  Very simple pattern on large needles. 

                              

   

  I am enjoying knitting something simple this week, because I just finished up this Turkish lace shawl, which was a little more difficult.  Here it is being blocked on towels -

                              

   

  And I am about to start a class on a Swallowtail shawl, which is, I am told, harder yet!

  When I am not giving in to my knitting addiction, I am moving along on my Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt.  Hope you aren't tired of seeing these finished flowers, because this is only # 43 of 64, then there are about 14 half flowers, and then I need to put white hexagons around each one, and then sew all of those together!!
