Block it like you mean it!

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that I only had four rows left on Haruni - not eight. And that I-Cord edging - I needn't have worried - I didn't have enough yarn any how.
So, I did a stretchy cast-off and I think it looks just fine. It's happily blocking and I'll get some modeled shots this weekend.

In the mean time, here's a little sneak peek at my bead workI love beads!

So now it's back to the regularly scheduled WIPs.

Nice! I really like the colours!

I thought of you the other evening when my cat curled up on my just finished sweater to have a nap. It reminded me of your cats.

Holy cow, that was quick! It's gorgeous! Too bad you didn't have enough for the iCord - I love the look of iCord edging. But I wouldn't have known it was supposed to have been there if you hadn't said.

Really lovely lace, and what perfect fall colours!

So far I've been able to resist the lure of beads in my knitting, but you're making it really hard...

As gorgeous as the finished photos are this is the one that has me swooning over the yarn!

Now - are you addicted to beading?
