Here is what I knit on the weekend! Some wee wrist warmers, just in time for summer I might add. They came form the book Compassionate Knitting and were just right for a long weekend. I was pleased to find the lace part not as frightening as I had expected. The second one is a lot smaller. For some reason I was a lot more tense the second time around so it is all tight. Oh well! good enough! I used this yummy yarn.
oh WOW, those are so gorgeous. Mmmmmmm lovely.

They are gorgeous indeed. Lovely work. I have some yarn like that in that same color and never knew what to do with it. Now I know!

very nice armwarmers. they worked out very well with the cashmere.
the aran cashmere is quite lovely. a little birdy says that there might be a sweater pattern up for this yarn in the near future!

Girl! These are beautiful! I bet these would be a hot seller if someone made up a bunch! : ) OH - and that ring on your left hand there -congratulations! I don't think I've passed that on yet - I heard from Mar a while back.

So pretty! Knitted lace always looks so mysterious and difficult.

So lovely! Pretty colour, pretty pattern..and you could be a hand model! I think I might have some of that cashmere in my stash. I've hoarded it long enough, thank you for the inspiration.

Oh yes.. don't you love making things for opposite seasons? ;) Actually, it makes them twice as exciting, because the anticipation builds up until you finally wear them and it's so exciting!
