I had a notion ...

To write a blog - someplace to put patterns, knitting, thoughts and probably a lot of pictures of my cat.

First up, it's my lattice lace Wingspan.  Such a cool pattern, all maths and angles and calculations.  I'm always amazed how a piece of yarn can be twisted, turned, knitted, purled and transformed into an object.  Essentially one piece of string and voila!  Or, as my Dad would say, Viola!

I used "most" of the pattern.  Can't help it really, always likely to play around and change things.  Keeps it interesting. Also I have an aversion to lace patterns on both sides.  For me, that purl row is essential.

And such yarn.  Go to Vintage Purls.  Buy yarn. And do subscribe - the pictures of VP cats are such a bonus. This was knitted in Superstar (Aquarius) and Sock (Rees) - slight disparity in weight but I never said I was a knitting purist.
