If looking at other lace work can help someone else along then I am all for it! I hope I'm up to the challenge of making Reflections in the future.

I can't wait to buy the pattern for the Princess Shawl when it comes out later this year so I guess I'll be in the same boat as you! I have two shawls out of all the lace I've knit. All the rest have been given away. However, a good friend is now lusting after Mountain Pines and I may have to give it to him.

I will 'splain<BR/><BR/>I started the WRS. Then I stopped after the plain garter stitch rows, I think reality hit in, and I should finish Princess first.<BR/><BR/>I made the Estonian garden stole ( at least I think it was that) last year in misti Alpaca. As with most of my lace shawls it found a home with my sister. I also made the STS last year that went home with my Mom.<BR/>Thanks for the new enabling Jane, I don't know what on earth I ever did for enabling sisters before I came across your two blogs.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00954890018181628320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30259281.post-48768759382812820782007-05-03T13:59:00.000-07:002007-05-03T13:59:00.000-07:00Dear Opal,I want to do the Estonian Garade Wrap Sh...Dear Opal,<BR/><BR/>I want to do the Estonian Garade Wrap Shawl too.

I've done a shawl from the Gladys Amedro book and not only is it written rather than charted, it is not using standard knitting abbreviations so you have to learn those too! I gave it away, of course :-)Lacefreakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06291336363387079445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30259281.post-6825616465990529432007-05-02T12:47:00.000-07:002007-05-02T12:47:00.000-07:00I ordered it just now, but I am so swamped I can't...I ordered it just now, but I am so swamped I can't think of when I can work on it. thanks for the info, Jane!

We'll see how it goes--I'm sure the most challenging part will be the fact that the pattern has no charts....missalicefayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03087111607375907675noreply@blogger.com
