ishbel


Pattern: Ishbel by Ysolda Teague
Yarn: Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in Denim
There is nothing I don't absolutely love about this. I love Ysolda and everything she dreams up. I love this yarn and its colour. I love that the lace pattern totally kicked my butt last week when I had a cold and wasn't able to concentrate and by missing one stitch that threw everything off but I didn't quite believe I had been thrown off and mis-counted the same 300 stitches 3 times and then had to tediously tink back 4 rows and it took me 2 hours to get back to where I'd been.....I love that about it, in retrospect. It's nice to have to think carefully about something once in a while.
