I meant to post the FO the next day after my teaser, but my husband took the camera cord in his briefcase and left it at his office for several days!! It definitely is lace.
This is “A Stork’s Nest Scarf” by Nancy Bush. It was in Piecework Magazine Jan/Feb 2008. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it, and have been meaning to knit it all year. It was going to be for my mom for Christmas, but when I got sick – I couldn’t finish it. I think I’ll put it away until Mother’s Day. She could wear it in the spring just as an accent and not get overheated with it. I hope she likes it.
I used Malabrigo laceweight, which I love. The pictures are a little more vibrant than the yarn, I think. It’s really a more pastel blue, but it has been dark and gloomy here so it’s hard to take accurate pictures.
