Well...



okay, I haven't finished the fingerless gloves. I confess, I haven't even finished one of them! But I have, however, finished the centre panel of my lace stole, pattern from Victorian Lace Today (VLT)



and here are detail shots:


And the not-so-good news is that I made a couple of mistakes in the beggining of the border, but I've fixed that now. Later, I will upload some images, hopefully in better focus *blush*

But so far, I'm very happy with it. Wish me luck in finishing it. Uni is back and things could get interesting. Of course, I might finish this thing rather than do my homework. This is much more fun.

Progress

And I'm home again. Home with my mother and twin, and, of course, I brought my dear boy with me. I've also done some knitting, which is always good. This is the progress of the fingerless glove I was working on in my last post. I'm moving dreadfully slowly, though. And once I've finished this one, I'll have another to do! But it will make knitting a bit warmer, especially with the winter temperatures we have in New South Wales at the moment. Although, I have to say, I'm really looking forward to having it finished, so I can get back to work on my lace. I hope to post a picture of that in my next post.

Ah, first post


Ah, my first post here on blog. Okay, introductions...
I'm 22 y/o, a student of Japanese language, and a knitter. A long-term knitter. Most of my projects take months or more, and some never get finished. I plan to change that, though. I am working on it, I swear! The photo is one of my current projects, adapted from this page: http://www.knitty.com/issuesummer06/PATTfetching.html We'll see how we go on that. It shouldn't take too long, I hope
I'm engaged to be married to a lovely man, Mike. He's my sweetie and he's not escaping me now.

That's a little bit about me. We'll see how I go on this blogger site.
