Fan lace and short-row lace


Fan lace and short-row lace
Originally uploaded by steel breeze

Trying out fan lace (see http://loopsinstring.blogspot.com/2008/12/fan-lace-tutorial.html) - really cool, would probably look better blocked. Then went on to do short-rowing lace.

Had a fit of the red mist today and went a bit yarn-bonkers in the local Mill Outlet shop - they have a lot of stuff half price, or for silly prices. If you are in the market for fun fur, or that ladder yarn (like Sirdar Firefly), they have some decent stuff on offer!

This, after I was so proud of myself for resisting the charms of (1) the House of Fraser sale (lots of bagged Rowan) and (2) the Birmingham Rag market yarn stall.

Sigh!

That is very cool! I hadn't seen that technique before. Thanks for sharing!
