I've been working on my blocks for On Ringo Lake, the mystery quilt from Bonnie Hunter. I'm just about 2/3 there! My piles of prepared pieces to make the blocks are running very low! Putting the blocks together is Part 8. Part 9 is sewing the sashing, making the set in triangles and actually putting the top together. I'm hoping to start Part 9 soon! (Which sounds it will take forever!)
This is Stellaria, a shawl pattern by Susanna IC. I finally broke down and bought the pattern last month. I've admired it for a long time!
I had a variegated cranberry Madeline Tosh lace yarn in my stash. I thought I'd give it a try. So far, it's not very difficult. That lace looks a little complicated! I'll take it one stitch at a time!
Have a wonderful weekend!!
Your On Ringo Lake looks so pretty--lotsa pieces in her mystery quilts!! I'll bet that Madelinetosh yarn is really lovely--that pattern is so lovely....hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Julierose! Trying to finish those darn blocks! Knitting my shawl is my relaxing project!
DeleteHard to believe you still have so much more to do on Ringo Lake. It looks almost done now!
ReplyDeleteVery, very pretty shawl pattern, I can see why you had to have it. :-)
Em, these blocks are never ending! Hope my shawl comes out okay. Looks difficult but I thought I'd try it anyways!
Deletelove your ringo lake so far Bonnie has tons of pieces in her quilts. love them but have to wait until I have more time to do them too much on the plate at the moment nice shawl too
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dawn. I'm trying to get caught up on some older projects before I started Bonnie's mystery quilt. I didn't know how much work was involved. I've got too much going too!
DeleteI love the Stellaria pattern! I think I have knit it 3 times :) It really shows off a skein of special yarn so well.
ReplyDeleteI think Stellaria is so pretty! Hope I can knit it properly. Your letter is on the way! Unfortunately, it was delayed last week due to a snow storm. Had an ice storm today! Can't win with the weather this year.
