This was a nice project to do, I was a bit fed up with my FI jumper and wanted a break so this is for a friends birthday.

It is made from sock yarn but knitted on a size 5 needle. I had to swap out my usual favourite metal needles for my bamboo as it kept slipping off the metal needles too easily. I will knit another one but might change the way it’s knitted a bit.

It is a free pattern from stylcraft https://www.stylecraft-yarns.co.uk/patterns?filters=83,84&yarns=266. It is the one called lace shawl.

Oooh that's lovely!   :love:
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.

So pretty  :perfect10:
As it neared the top of the grade, it went more slowly. However, it still kept saying, "I—think—I—can, I—think—I—can." It reached the top by drawing on bravery and then went on down the grade, congratulating itself by saying, "I thought I could,  I thought I could."
