Emily's the knitter, Clare's the spinner, and we both like cocktails!

Finished Tuscany!

I've enjoyed knitting this very much (most the first half with the delightfully short rows and sense of progress as I added 2 motifs every 16 rows).











It's been amazingly quick, for me, despite starting as a surreptitious project (thinking C would comment on yet another started rather than dissertation growing).




It's Jaeger 4 ply silk, no longer made, and has a slight gleam but wonderful drape.













I love the 3-D effect of the zig-zags.
