Summertime

The best thing about summer is that I have time to make lace - lots of lace.  This is a Tonder pattern, reconstructed by Bobbi Donnelly.

A seriously stupid snowflake, knit from Franklin Habit's Craftsy class on Heirloom Edgings.
Another Tonder piece, this one from the book "Spiderwebs and Dreams".
An Icelandic lace shawl I knit, on display at the NCRL Spring Lace Day in Raleigh.
Another Tonder piece that I just started - will be a handkerchief.
I'm also trying to use the summertime to go for more walks, go kayaking and clean my house.  Hopefully, it will stop raining soon.

Progress!

This is Sweet Briar Rose, pattern by Bobbi Donnelly, done in 140/2 Egyptian Cotton.  It took a long time.
