The Big Project, unveiled at last!

[celticdragonfly]

There have been various mentions in my journal of The Big Project I'd been working on. People may have noticed that no details of The Big Project were given publically, and most probably drew the correct inference, that it was to be a Christmas project.

Some people, of course, have come over, and were dragged to my study so I could inflict it on them got the opportunity to see it in progress.

So here it is - the Lilacs and Lace afghan. phoenixsinger does latchhooking, and some time ago did for herself an oval Lilacs and Lace rug that she's very fond of. When she was here a year ago, she told me she knew there existed a kit for a matching crocheted afghan. She didn't crochet. Well, I taught her basic crochet. But when I came across the kit back in June or so, I could see this was going to be too complex for her. Whew. It was complex indeed - three wide vertical sections, two narrow sections worked sideways, all five sewn together, the border added to the whole thing, and then the designs cross-stitched on over the crochet.

But it's DONE Done done, and it was done and wrapped in time to give to phoenixsinger on Xmas Eve. Yay!

Between that and the blue socks I did for Karl? Heck yes.

I have the first of a pair of brown maple leaf pattern socks on the needles for me right now.

I really do want to do a bunch more knitting for *myself* this year. But then, I said that last year, too.
