Alright, alright, so I'm blogging from work because I'm realy tired and I really can't face the tasks I have set to me today. But nevertheless, we finally blocked my sweet darling's birthday gift (only two and a half months behind schedule) and I thought you might like to see the Lacy Lamb in action. Happily, it grew quite a bit when we blocked it, since I was a little concerned about the length.

And, lucky for me, my darling took all the photots, so all I have to do is post them:

(Oh well, that's a little annoying, I forgot that MT likes to restart a post when you upload an image. Maybe I ought to show the other two via Flickr.)

Here's the edging. It's worked sideways, and then you pick up along one edge for the scarf. Pretty clever.

This is a nice arty shot of the main lace pattern, which was nice, simple, repetitive, and I still managed to screw up four or five times, resulting in much wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Well, that does it. It looks like we're back in swing making stuff now, and we'll both be hard pressed to avoid playing around with Ravelry which might keep me chronicalling the "In Progress" shots a little more than I usually do.
