From Tabitha Knits… |
Finished my second ever lace dishcloth. This one was much easier for me to knit than the first one I did even though I think this pattern was actually a little bit more challenging. First because I learned the basics with Snowy Drops. Second, because I retired the bamboo needles for this one. Even though I love my bamboo needles, the points are just to blunt for maneuvering your way through the series of k2tog’s, skp’s and ssk’s necessary for lacework. My Knitpicks were much better suited for this. The only problems I had were learning to count, remembering the YO’s and making sure I caught both loops on the K2TOGTBL’s. This was really fun and I am gaining a lot of confidence with lace work. I may be ready to attempt that Heirloom shawl now. Thanks again Andi for the knitting workout.
