Shetland Triangle and lace
I have a hard time with lace. I have to rip out at least 5 times before I can really get going on the project, and even then it’s hard to not make a mistake. I hate it… and I love it. It’s addictive. Why do I torture myself??
But I’ve made a new discovery! Lace looks great when done on bulky yarn. I saw the Shetland Triangle in Eco Wool and had to have one. It just happened we’d just got Eco Wool into Hilltop Yarn, so it was destiny. It took me a week to finish it because, of course, it flew on my hands, and before I knew it I was giving the finished shawl a good blocking. I loved EcoWool- it is soft and fluffly (THICK!) and knit up beautifully. i will be knitting with his yarn again and again and again. I can’t wait to go back to the shop!
