I purchased this book a few days ago. It includes a primer on lace knitting and 20 beautiful patterns. I started these socks with a pretty little simple lace pattern. These are knit with CoBaSi yarn. This yarn has a nice elasticity to it.
Cheers!

Saturday, we traveled to Mahone Bay and Lunenburg to have lunch and shop around. We had lunch at Rebecca’s. The chef is very talented. Take a look.
Found a pretty dress at Luvly in Lunenburg. Canadian made. I love when the tag says Made in Canada!
Yesterday at Have A Yarn in Mahone Bay I found some new projects:
Today I had a lace knitting workshop at The Loop in Halifax.
This yarn I will use to make the Wirbel Shawl by Sue Berg. A one skein project!
I’m making headway on my Quicksilver shawl. It’s fun to knit, with the striping and open work lace wedges.
Its Tuesday morning Knit group time.
Finished half of my Penny vest, I’m loving this colour. Perfect for warmer months ahead. I had a wonderful lunch from Frais Catering today. Pea soup with a mustard butter with ham and Gruyere puff pastry.
Maple Tart from Slow Dough. BrownStitch Penny vest knit with Berroco Folio.
On my needles right now is this fantastic pattern by Kate Jackson Knits. I’m just entering the home stretch. Can’t wait to wear this sweater just in time for spring.
