it's been a pleasure ~ guest blogger lori





finally 'all done'  photos! in one way it's my favorite part, deciding how to photograph knits after making them. in the second photo you may notice my is leaves draped over a barbed wire fence. when i showed this on my blog this morning i received emails and comments, 'how could you?!' not to worry, no leaves of grass were harmed in this photo shoot. i loved knitting this the first time last summer and maybe even more this time, i couldn't seem to put it down. brooklyn tweeds loft was one of the reasons, it's incredibly lovely, delicate and light, woolly and heathery and after a soak, so very soft. thank you for all the kind comments and making this first kal a true pleasure. i'm looking forward to seeing all the beautiful leaves of grass coming off your needles. if you have an interest to see more photos and or the cute critters that came out for these photos,
go here lori times five. ravelry notes here.

happy kal'ing everyone!    :)

  7. Meh... it's okay.

    Just kidding! I'm horribly bitter and envious of your success, though I've always been a late bloomer. I love that you took the shawl on a "leaves of grass" field trip.

    (Psst! y'all should see the other LoG pics on her blog!)
