Notes

February 21

Completed my Bloomsbury, now I can finally move on to the next project (I’ve promised myself I will work on only one project at a time).

Knitted exactly as per pattern, but it required so much less yarn than the pattern stated, I was so disappointed… I would have knit one or more repeats of the lace, since it’s so small…

Anyway, it looks lovely!

First measurements after (aggressively) blocking: 44 cm center back x 192 cm along the edge.

Oh, and used Miyuki 8.0 beads in silver-lined rose, just as per pattern.

My cat Mimi was curious as I was taking the pictures, and let me squeeze him and pet him a bit… he’s such a mummy’s little boy! ❤︎
