Lace knitting.........the call of the delicate and beautiful. Another one on the needles! I can thank my friendly YahooGroup for the temptation (Triggy is the name of the pattern.). I am using lace weight, spiderweb yarn, size 6 needles. The pattern is untested so it is fun to see how it goes. There are others knitting this, too, so hopefully the way will be clear for knitting! This is about the size of a dinner plate now-not bad for two evenings of knitting. The yarn is a souvenoir from the recent trip to her LYS.
I finished the quilt for my friend-this was a large, heavily quilted project. The quilt was the largest my frame will hold-110 x 110" so it was quite a palette for quilting. This is the back-free motion leaves and swirls.

OOooooo, that lace is lovely. Isn't it amazing how the number of stitches grows when you are doing a circular shawl? Each row gets slower and slooooower.
