First successful knit lace project.

[quietheart]

After pulling my hair out with many lace patterns I finally found a small crescent shawl pattern on Ravelry called Summer flies that worked! So here is my first successful knit lace project.

Wow that is so pretty, do you have it listed in your Ravelry page yet? I am asking because I wanted to know it's finished size and also what yarn you used and needle size. ( I know, I am not asking much am I ?)

hehe Yepyep it was up on my rav page the day it was done!

There are several hundred others done on the project page with the original link too, so you can see folks wearing them etc.

And get a better idea of size than mine little picture. Mine is more of a scarf size.

It's a small crescent shawl but some people (not I) added repeats and made it larger etc.

Here is my rav page, with yarn, needle etc, but I didnt measure it lol

Im pondering yarn for my second as we speak

Beautiful shawl!

 

I just downloaded the pattern. I have been wanting to try my hand at a lace project.....I like that it uses worsted weight yarn instead of lace weight.

I hear you there...

I found a guy on Ravelry that has some round and square patterns.. I think his user name is MMarioKnits. or MMarioKKnits.
