A meandering path through the crafts I follow, undoubtedly touching on other parts of life as well. My name's Elizabeth; I've a husband, two kids, a cat, and an abiding interest in fiber. Mostly this will be about fiber. And gardening, just because.

Icarus is Done Not just done, but done done. Washed, blocked, dry, ready for unpinning. Pictures with the flash on a brown bedspread notwithstanding, this is burgundy colored, not brown. I need blocking wires. Maybe on my Christmas list...
lizzie - excellent job!! I waffle back and forth over that shawl - seems like a lot of boring stuff for a small lace payoff at the end. (g) How about a photo of it on a body?

Nice! You are ahead of me. I blocked BEFORE the sewing in.
