Lace Shawl #18 by Meg Swansen
I started this in 2006, but it got too messy because I could not "get" the pattern. lace….
But now, I was ready to try it again.
I don’t really like lace, too much “thinking” and not good for TV watching, but I got to try again.
Notes to self:
do not knit lace at night! do not drink and lace, don't carry an important conversation while attempting lace.

After a few attempts again this year, I finally understood where I went wrong- it has to do with the last repeat of each section in the RS rows. the first one is correct, but 3,5,7 should say- * -* to X stitches before end of row, and now do the last repeat differently.
it drove me crazy!!!

5/22-DONE! after washing and blocking, this is softer, but still not fluffy like alpaca. I think it will be nice and warm in fall and winter.
