Notes

February JAL in CSW group // #7 in 2013


15.2.2013 -- I swatched with the Regia Lace and don’t like it one bit!
23.2.2013 -- Yesterday visited Wollmeise with a friend and found a beautiful lace skein --> going to swatch with this one!

Wollmeise Lace is the right yarn for this pattern! :))

27.2.2013 -- Had my troubles working up the puff stitch rows; I am a really tight crocheter and puffs needed to be worked loose! Done!!
2.3.2013 -- Cluster rows finished!
3.3.2013 -- Finished rows 42 to 45 -- no problem with the pattern; the stitch count adds up.
*** those rows are getting long and longer!!! ***
3.3.2013 (midnight) -- Finished the mesh rows
4.3.2013 (after midnight) -- Finished!
*** Now need to block it! ***


Again it shows that I am a really tight crocheter -- used only 790 m of the Wollmeise Lace!
Unblocked: 56 cm spine, 89 cm neckline
Blocked: 72 cm spine, 146 cm neckline


I rated this pattern as medium -- there are no really demanding stitches in it but you have to keep attention all the time and count and recount!

The result however is lovely and absolutely worth the effort!
