Making one of these, and in the same color as the one shown. Only have the bottom lace edges to finish. I'm using wool yarn that I got in Mitchell, Nebraska from the Brown Sheep Wool Company. We went through there last spring on the way out to CA to get daughter from college. The factory has a store with great bargains. Love it! The project is turning out exactly as pictured. Great design and not too difficult. Yes, I'm sure all the men here will be so thrilled with this thread. But, hey, if Mik can tell us about his morning red waters, then I get to tell about my red wools.

Oh, thank you so much! I'm excited that it actually looks like it's supposed to look.

Oh my. Thank you, George! At first I was thinking it would be handy thing to throw on for going to the grocery store, but now it seems more like something to wear when going out to a concert. I am rather surprised at how such simple stitches can look kind of fancy. I think it will be a fun piece to wear. The other nice surprise is how fast it went together. I thought it would take far more time. |

If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead
|
She'd display her..ah...attributes better if she didn't have that beautiful cape on. |

I'm thinking the "attributes" would be much better served by leaving the cape ON and removing the balance. ![]() |

You two are so bad. It's like you were talking to a hooker.

Isn't there some way we can keep the menz out of our nice topic? |

No, but we get to tease Mik and markallen about ANYTHING we choose now. Beware, you menz.
