My sister is 50 today. She’ll have a party at her house and then on Thursday her and her family – brother-in-law, my 3 nephews, and 2 nieces – will drive all the way up to Berlin to stay with us for a long weekend and to celebrate some more.
The house is getting ready (I am counting couches, bedsteads, and mattresses …) and so are we.
And YES, I did finish the lace in time! In spite of my quarrelling, unraveling, and whining 🙂 When halfway through, I actually loved making it. The color is gorgeous, the feel is just how I wanted it to be, and the pattern is beautiful.
So, pleased as I am, I am posting more pictures than usual.
Carina, I love the scarf and the colour is amazing – can you remember what Yarn you used and how much of it for this pattern? many thanks Ali
Thank you!
I have used “Lana Merino Lace” (“viola scurio” is the color), a little less than 140gr (50gr = 350m running length). It is 100% wool and wasn’t all that expensive (50gr = 5,75 EUR) after all.
An earlier post (“Lace Debut”) shows the skein and has a link to the original (and easy) pattern. My scarf is a lot wider though (as I wanted it to be more of a wrap). It measures 52x200cm.
Hope that helps. Sorry for not converting all data …
Beautiful, colour and pattern.
That is lovely. You have a lucky sister! Happy birthday to her.
It’s beautiful!!! You’ve done such a great job!
Congratulations! And I do hope she loves it!
She does 🙂
