Remember this?
That's my Alpine Lace Scarf from Victorian Lace Today. I've been working on it for about 5 months.
Well, it now looks like this:
And of particular interest is this bit:
Yes, that would be the top border that's just been started. I have a bit of a problem, but soon discovered that while the pattern says 37 repeats, it does require an even number, so she either meant 37 repeats in addition to the repeat used to 'set the pattern' or the just meant 38 and put in 37.
I ended up with 36 repeats. I'm short, the loss of a couple of inches isn't an issue.
I'm working on this almost exclusively in order to get it finished, blocked and ready to wear by next Friday. I'm being taken out to the theatre on that night, so for the first time I'm going someplace in which this stole would be perfectly appropriate.
I plan on wearing it to uni and such, but it'd be nice to have it ready for Friday.
As for the mystery stole... It can wait till after I've pinned this out!
