I still haven’t gotten a good finished project photo of the Cathedral Stole. That will be the next post. That certainly doesn’t mean I couldn’t cast on something new.
This is some of the prettiest yarn I’ve worked with in a long time. It’s Lisa Souza 100% Silk Lace, in the color Cameroon. It’s 1000 meters/100 g, and is just gorgeous to knit with. After a few starts to get the right needle, I ended up with an ebony 2.50 mm circular from Holz & Stein, with wickedly sharp tips.
Doesn’t look like much yet, but I’m loving knitting with this. This will be another shawl, Elizabeth, by Dee O’Keefe.
Stay tuned for the Finished Project post for the red shawl!
That does look lovely! Silk has such a sheen to it. Enjoy the knitting!
Wow that is gorgeous yarn. Maybe someday I’ll wear shawls.
If you ever move back to non-laceweight, it will feel like knitting with a garden hose!
