Lace Knitting and Blogging Don't Mix

Lately I have been obsessed with lace knitting. As if you can't tell from the finished projects and works in projects lists in the side bar. 6 of the 7 projects I've finished this year are all lace or have lace trim. And 4 of the 11 projects in progress have something to do wtih lace.

And look what I just got from Kirtland's Yarn Barn?


That would be three Fiddlesticks Knitting LACE shawl patterns (with a 4th that was back ordered arriving in the future) and two LACE patterns by Margaret Halas.

And I also ordered and downloaded several patterns by Mary McCall.

The problem with lace knitting is that it does not photograph well while being worked on. A lace shawl in progress looks like nothing other than a misshapen bag.


I could show you day after day of detail... but that never looks good either...


Of course this does not apply if you are Wendy. She knits everything so fast, including huge lace shawls, that her blog is never at risk of displaying week after week of pictures of a slowly growing misshapen bag.

Better than pictures of unblocked lace knitting, don't you think?
