NQFO: Queen Mab
Not Quite Finished Object
Even though it's not quite finished (awaiting arrival of the clasps I ordered for it), and I'll not be doing a proper photoshoot for a few weeks yet, I thought I'd share a few snaps of the blocked Queen Mab design
This used about 2.5 skeins of our Jungle Cat (Bamboo/Merino blend) in the Loch Ness Monster colourway.
As you can see, all those lacy leaves blocked out beautifully . Unlike the original Queen Mab, this version has 3/4 sleeves (the original is a vest). Both options will be included in the final pattern, and both are finished off with a nice bit of lace.
Now I just need some quiet time when Dave is out of the house, so I can commandeer the main computer and put the other sizes together. Then I'll search out a few test knitters.

Very pretty!
Nice! I used to have a cat named Mab. I found her living behind a dumpster when I was in college. She was a good kitty.
Beautiful ! I like both versions , really nice work , you are so talented .
Oh my ,what a gorgeous sweater! You continue to amaze me with your talent. Gorgeous colour too.
Just beautiful! This really turned out so well! Congratulations on a job well done!
Very, very pretty. Congratulations on a great finish!! Love the lace detailing.
I really like it. I love the combination of the stockinette sleeves and the lovely lace body. It's elegant but kind of edgy too if that makes any sense. You know I love your photo shoots so I look forward to that. But this is good stuff lady!
Beautiful! I love the way this turned out - it's something that would be very wearable where I live (which can be hard to find, sometimes).
You are a wonderful designer!!! I love the leaves. Thanks for the preview!!!! Truly gorgeous
So pretty! Love the bit of lace on the ends of the sleeves. Perfect color too!
It is so gorgeous! I could never make anything that intricate.
Very pretty, I can see it in a deep colour too.
