What lovely examples she had with her, even though I have no intention of re-creating anything like them. She DID inspire me to go to Estonia... to seek out the yarn shops, and look at samples myself.
Lace isn't for everyone, and I've done enough of it to pick and choose what I wanted to attempt that day... Friend, Kay, had a wonderful time. After 5 rows she threw up her hands in disgust and cheerfully frogged the whole mess when she discovered the wrong number of stitches.
Here she is half hour later, with her same 5 rows, and STILL the wrong stitches...
lace often beats me too. Although I just started 'My First Lace Scarf' from Sally Melville's latest book - and I think I've got it!! Yay!!
