My Juneberry

The colorway of this yarn makes me think of a Robert Frost poem, Nothing Gold can Stay.  The colors remind me of leaves bursting out of buds and taking on that golden hue that is so fleeting.  I'm itchy for spring!


The project is going quite well.  I'm through the second chart now and hope to finish the third chart today.  This is my first lace project to have lacework on both sides, so I expected quite a challenge.  What I found is that it's not nearly as difficult as I had imagined, it just needs my full attention.

    Coach! He was wonderful.

    Man this project is really stretching me. The first row with bobbles took me 45 minutes o_O But now I know how to make them! Another first for me.
