I have bought the pattern “Esmerald Isle” from the sponsor Goddess Knits. I am using New Zealand Lambwool. Looking forward to knit this! I also wonder if this shawl is Medium Lace or Large Lace.

I see that there is a final competition entry form. We’re getting so close, what is supposed to be done with that form? Do we attach the htmls from all our entries to that one form, or what? thanks,

Does anyone else have a love/hate relationship with lace? While I am new to this, I find the following scenario being repeated over and over and over again: Casting on with lace weight yarn for the first time, there was immediate intimidation. A few rows into the project, my confidence began to grow and I [...]
