traveling in lace.

This is just a quick post to share a finished Christmas present:

You might remember that my mom asked for a couple of gifts for two very dear friends – the first Traveling Woman was finished back in the summer for one and this is the second. The first travelled to Halifax, where they get winter and storms so I held the yarn double. This one is staying here in Vancouver where we get rain but not really cold weather so I didn’t double the yarn.

I didn’t do yarn overs along the center stitch again – just M1L and M1R on either side. The yarn is Classic Elite in Silky Alpaca Lace colour #2409 Teal. Gorgeous. It softened beautifully when I washed and blocked it. Quite lovely.
