Spiraling………..

Spiralucious in progress

I thought I was going to have a finished item to show you today, but the lace edging is taking a wee bit longer than I thought it would, so I will finish it up this evening.  This is a fun knit!  Watching the dainty edging grow as you bind off is so interesting.  I had my doubts that I had it right at first, but after 2 repeats…I saw that I had it. 🙂

I am working on Spiralucious for my son's girlfriend. (No, she doesn't read the blog that I am aware of, so it's safe to discuss).  I dyed the colors to match both of the gifts that Miles bought for her…..a dark brown jacket and a light blue fleece from Northface.  She is very fair, so I dug into those pastels that I usually steer away from…..I went for a very soft blue and taupey brown.  The blue is actually much softer than in the picture.  The only modification I have done was to make it a bit longer by adding an extra repeat on the second chart.

I will hopefully get it blocked and modeled by one of my grrls tomorrow 🙂
