Lace On Lace Cloth-REVISION 031508

Hi all, just wanted to bring something to your attention on the above cloth. Someone was nice enough to contact me and let me know about one of the rows being "off". After row 33; add row 33A: K2, P36, K2

That row will need to be done to prepare the cloth for the next sequence of rows. This change was just to add another Purl row before starting row 34.

New Cloth Design

Hi and it's been a while, I am just getting around to posting on my blog, it has been a rough few months personally and what I need to get back to is working on the calendar for 2009, which I love working on.

As I do some designs that I am not going to use for the calendar, I will pass along. A few months back I promised a lace cloth to someone and can't remember who it was but anyway I am posting it here for those interested in trying something different. This particular pattern I was trying different types of lace stitches with as an experiment with using one as a border pattern and the other in the body of the cloth. They were separated with stockenette rows. The lace pattern for the border, although it is hard to see resembles little baskets. So you can use part or all or whatever if you wish.

When doing a YO and purling, make sure your yarn has made a complete circle around your needle or your stitch count will be off.

Thank You To Everyone

I just want to thank everyone for being so kind and understanding during my husband's fight with Cancer. He got weaker and weaker and found it also in his brain and there is just nothing they can do once that happens.

There is a special group on the Internet that I want to personally thank and that is the people at heartmadeblessings.org for sending me a beautiful comfort afghan. The group consists of a bunch of caring individuals who give of their time and resources to help others out during a difficult time. My good friend Mary Kaufman told them about me and it moved them to make a special afghan for me. It is the most beautiful gift and came in a gorgeous tote bag.

I have had some very low times due to the fact that I no longer have my lover and my dear friend and my life has changed drastically due to his passing. It is sometimes difficult enough just to get through the day much less be very productive. I have some photos of the afghan I am putting on my blog but it is so big it was difficult to get a picture of it.

Thanks again to everyone for their support.
