I finished up the lace bookmark from Piecework. It looks nice, but that was a lot of little stitching. My
eyes were hurting after working on it. I hated the purling 2 together in the back of the loop with such small thread
and needles. That was hard.
I found another bookmark pattern that is really great.
The Book Thong. I've already made one and love it. It's easy. The beads are fun. It's fast. It looks cool.
I'm going to make a few for those that will be meeting me for the new Harry Potter book release.
I'm without camera right now, or I would share photos.
I finished the second baby blanket. I'm really happy with how the pattern turned out. I'm glad I adapted
the stitch pattern to something I find more appealling.
Here is a shot taken at an angle so you can see the stitch pattern better:
I've started making a
lace bookmark. It uses small crochet cotton thread. I thought it might make a nice present for someone who shall remain nameless
at this time. I'm using size 00 needles. I don't have any 0 sizes on hand.
It's interesting to see how all of these weird stitches make their patterns.
It's my first lace project!
In between all of this I have made curtains for our bathroom window and curtains for a set of french doors in Steve's
office.
I have curtains for the kitchen, and drapes for our bedroom, and Bruce's bedroom next on the priority list. The
fabric is already purchased for all of them. It's just a matter of making the space and time for them.
