Celadon lace beginnings
And since the cotton yarn is so thin and slow, I decided to cast on for another project...thick wool and big needles will lead to faster progress, perhaps? I seem unable to focus on just one project. Here is the start of the Anthrogologie-inspired capelet, which Joanne saw on Craftster awhile back.

Just a ribbed neckline so far
After the first row of raglan increases, I already need a longer circular needle. I am not sure how the capelet will turn out, since the yarn thickness varies...if successfull, it will be a handknit gift!

You're so knitty! I LOVE that light blue yarn. Both projects look great. Snails knit pretty slowly, but they do a great job and that's what counts. I'm just happy to see you knitting, Carol. Enjoy!
you are becoming quite a skilled knitter! no worries about speed... i love the lace pattern, very lovely!
Both look very lovely! I really like the colors that you choose.
