I have "the dress" on my needles right now. Knitted the Kate doll last evening. Its not at all tricky. I was cross because the book didnt arrive soon enough to knit from it before the wedding but happy now as the colours can be correct and I can put a train om the dress if I can just work out the increases in the next few minutes !!!

I like making lace better, even though at heart I am a knitter first. I have made Jean Greenhowe's Nativity creche 2+ times, so I am familiar with making knitted figures. The likelihood is that the actual knitting isn't that difficult. But sewing together all the little pieces requires much intestinal fortitude. It's just plain tedious. But you do end up with a wonderful set. I got the book because I love that sort of thing, at least to look at, and it can be used with very little imagination for any wedding couple. > > Lyn in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, US, where we celebrated Mother's Day a week early and went to Longwood Gardens. It sprinkled rain on the way home, but on the whole cool but pleasant. - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
