Notes

Dear Heavens! It is done! ANd it looks…RIGHT! Shawl #2 of 2011.

I’m on the 3rd A chart and…and…it actually LOOKS like Ishbel! Except the variagation is eating the lace pattern (!)

Okay, after doing charts A, B, and half of A again, it IS starting to look like….something pretty. Maybe not quite an Ishbel(?)…

I should rename it “The Mangled Ishbel” Or maybe, in a more positive light. “The Learning Experience Ishbel”. Moral of story: do NOT knit lace when feverish and vomiting.

See the entry for April 18th on my blog for some simple math to help you keep stitch counts and central alignment of the YOs correct!
