I’m not so sure this is my season for lace. I got off to a pretty good start, or so I thought, on the Spring Time Bandit, and then realized that I somehow forgot the set up for the center stitch. It’s a steep triangle, and I’ve not yet figured out how to manage it. So, instead of fretting, I put it aside, and started on the Traveling Woman instead (pictures to come by the end of the week). I’m very pleased with it, although I seemed to have some issues with the stitch count. I altered the last chart, just a smidge, to make it work.
Now that it’s done, and my linen beach wrap is almost done, I’m almost ready to cast on something new. Mary White, on Ravelry, has several beautiful patterns I’m just itching to cast on, but I cannot decide which one. she recently designed Leaf Envy, using my Lavish Lace, and it’s just gorgeous. I just can’t decide what shade of green I’d like to use. Then there’s Fluidity and Sunstar. So many beautiful choices! What’s a girl to do?

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
They are all lovely patterns so I don’t know if I could easily choose. However, your yarn seems to be leaning you in the correct direction. I look forward to seeing it.
And I am anxious to start knitting with the “Green Mountain”…it’s soooo pretty and being a red-head, VERY partial to greens…
that sounds like wonderful yarn and a wonderful combination. Can’t wait to see pictures!
I just dyed up a new green this morning on my 50% wool / 50% silk base. It looks yummy on the drying rack
I think it’ll be a good colorway for Leaf Envy.
All three sure are beautiful patterns, though personally I like Leaf Envy most but I think it depends big deal on what yarn you want to use. Any ideas as for that yet?
