I started knitting a lace pattern from “The Encyclopedia of Needlework” last night, using the hand spun yarn and size 0000 needles.
The silk component of this yarn gives it a really nice shine. And it's a smooth enough yarn that the stitch details is going to be really nice when I'm finished.
I have absolutely no idea what I’m going to do with this when I run out of yarn; I ended up with a bit more yardage than I thought I would have, initially. But the pattern is only 4 rows and so it’s nice and easy for knitting while watching something stupid on television.
