progress



Please note: photo updated after computer meltdown.

I've been working on a number of projects lately; I'm trying to finish a queen sized quilt, working on the design for my family's Christmas sweater for next year, the latest clue for the Vernal Equinox shawl, and this Cathedral cardigan. The bottom half of the newest design is done. You are looking at just over 12 inches of soft cashmere lace. The lower half has been divided at the armholes for two fronts and a back. The top half will be all stockinette, with an intricate button band. The set in sleeves will echo the lace pattern of the bottom and will be either elbow or 3/4 length. I'm only sorry that the photo doesn't show the true color of the yarn; it's much more a grass green, very saturated, not the pale sage-y color above. Stay tuned!
