Flight of the Wild Silk Moths

Did you know this is National Moth Week?  
Well now you can celebrate it with this wonderful pattern released just in the nick of time!
It's designed by Denise of LostCityKnits in her lace-weight 100% silk.
You will now see what I've been busy test knitting.

Birdie is sitting....so I can do some things

 Like knitting.....my all time favorite thing to do.
Just look at this 12" wide cowl.  The pattern is called Bar Hopping Cowl by LostCityKnits and the wool is Hard Workin' Worsted in colorway Santa Fe Sky.  This is the nicest wool ever!
 This gorgeous 36"x 60" stole is called Victorian Boucle' Stole and sold by Halcyon.
Quick and easy to knit.
 I also love to sew/quilt.  Here is the March 1800's block-of-the-month.......
and here is April's.

Narzissa Stole

Armed with less than 50 grams of J and S Supreme Cobweb Shetland Wool, US size 6  24" circular lace needles and 46 rows of clues presented each week for 4 weeks.......I knit this.......Fancy, Fancy.  
Birgit, of Knitting Delight, is a genius.  This Mystery Knit is over and gone but there will be another.....and you won't be disappointed.

Knitting Delight


Literally.  Knitting Delight's yahoo group is in German but the KAL's and Mystery Knits are posted in 5 (yes, five) different languages.  Once those are over, the files are up for a bit longer and then gone.  The patterns can be purchased, though.  This stole is called Summer Queen.

This was a KAL as Cardigan Malibu.  I made mine a V-neck pullover with shorter sleeves and a collar.
