Love the Mrs. Beaton's.

I think I might be having some of those. I am obsessed with Russian Lace and have a huge crush on the Knit Picks Pallette Sampler cardigan - though i haven't started it yet due to an inordinant amount of projects on my needles. I will definitely be watching this spot.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05036515282312483771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855752.post-1156090004051976012006-08-20T12:06:00.000-04:002006-08-20T12:06:00.000-04:00Ooh- a dedicated lace-chart notebook is a great id...Ooh- a dedicated lace-chart notebook is a great idea. I have a binder where I put all miscellaneous bits of paper for a project in a clear plastic sleeve, and I have a notebook (or two, or odd paper scraps) where I scribble anything knitting-related, but this is very messy. I like the idea of copying all my lace charts into one notebook, into which I could also paste xerox/enlarged charts that came with patterns - and eventually I'd have all the lace charts I've ever knit in one place, handy for re-use in patterns of my own making someday in the misty future! Thanks, Kirsten!<BR/><BR/>And thanks, Laura, too for the support - for some odd reason I feel a little crazy about this resolution, but like you said, it's a way to learn.

I have a wonderful little grid notebook where I chart everything before I begin. <BR/><BR/>Lovely Mrs. Beetons, such a quickie project, I doubt they even count as going off your UFO August plan!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855752.post-1156069040222764092006-08-20T06:17:00.000-04:002006-08-20T06:17:00.000-04:00your mrs. beetons are super cute!i have come to th...your mrs. beetons are super cute!<BR/><BR/>i have come to the same conclusion about knitting sweaters -- for awhile i thought could just design my own, but i have concluded that i need to spend a lot of time knitting other people's patterns first. it's a way to learn what works and what doesn't.<BR/><BR/>knitting lace without a chart ... shudder! that's just plain scary. :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17109910521429088196noreply@blogger.com
