I have been having fun crocheting the broomstick lace Hourglass Jacket, I posted about previously. I am at the point where I am going to start the crochet ribbing at the waist.
I am now a top down crocheting/knitting convert... it makes so much more sense and you can try it on as you go, so you know when to make any necessary adjustments. Here is the vintage yarn I am using for this garment. It says it is all wool, but it doesn't feel like it, it is so very soft.
Have you seen this quilt?
It is by Denyse Schmidt (I have been a big fan of hers for a long time) and it is up for auction here! What a great cause and such a cool/historical way to do it.
I love the look and of course the color of yarn you are using! ;)
