Ta Da! (Click for a bigger pic.) I finished Highland Triangle #1. Only 2 more to go! This pattern was actually quite enjoyable to knit, and it wasn't a bad introduction to lace. I used about 3/4 of a cone of Brown Sheep Nature Spun, on US 10 Denise circulars. I have to say I was surprised by how big it came out. I wasn't expecting something this wide. But that does make it very snuggly. Considering that I didn't touch this for weeks at a time, I was also surprised by how fast it knit up. I started it in the middle of October, and I finished it right at the end of December. My hope is that I will be able to speed things up a bit on the next two. And I already started the next one.

Dang! Thats a lot of knitting. I get sidetracked and don't want to do it anymore, then pick it up months later. You're very persistent.
I can't seem to hit the gauge for this one... did you use the worsted, sport or fingering weight?
I used sport weight, and I kind of fudged on the gauge. I would recommend trying out the lace pattern and seeing whether you like it.
very pretty, glor.
Hi Beth! You know we're making one for you, right? They're going to be for the 3 bridesmaids, you, and me.
