Deja Vu all over again
Anybody remember this from last year?
I was getting ready for Madrona and had a Lace Incident.
Meet the 2008 version.
As Renee said when I told her about it, "Well, you've got blog fodder." Yes, indeed I do. Always with the silver lining, that girl.
But looky here!
Already fixed! Not perfect, but hey, I'm MUCH happier than I was last night. To say the least.
Details:
Design: Wing o' the Moth by Anne Hanson
Yarn: Zephyr in sage green
Needles: Addi Turbos size 6
Finished Measurements: 90" x 45"
Started: Dec. 17, 2007
Finished: Feb. 11, 2008
Comments: Aside from the meltdown last night, I loved everything about this.
So here is the gallery of shots I get to post because I have a floaty lace FO!!






Good job!
I can't even tell where the repair is. This means you are bringing it to Madrona, right?
Can't wait to see you!

Oh my, that's just gorgeous! You've done a fabulous job of the repair. I can't even see where it is! I can't wait to see you wearing it.

Oh my goodness, what happened? I'm glad you got it fixed, and if it's not perfect nobody will notice - they'll be too busy oohing and aahing over your gorgeous shawl!
How is the sweater coming along, is it going to be done in time?

Gorgeous! I can't even see the repair.
(Is it just me or was last year's hole much scarier?)
I can't wait to see it in person. Hurry up and get out here!

Great repair job! Can you fix the hole I found this morning in my Diamond Fantasy Shawl? :)

Good work! It looks great.

Hurray! Glad to see it worked! I'm really glad you had your mom with you when you saw the hole. It had to be easier with support...right? At least, that's what I'd hope for. Comforting company when facing a dire knitting experience...
