Elizabeth has Arrived

At long last, Elizabeth is finally here!

Our little redhead arrived on Wednesday, February 3rd at 2:01 am. She weighed 7 pounds and 15 ounces.

Know that Elizabeth, Marie and Dan are all doing well and have recently made it back home to rest, recuperate, and enjoy each other’s company.

Stream of Diamonds

My latest design, a lace scarf featuring Kitty Grrlz’s Beautiful Bamboo, can be located within KnitCircus‘ Spring Digital Debut, magazine Issue #9.

Since it is difficult to ignore the call of the diamond’s simple and elegant shape, the Stream of Diamonds scarf features nothing but diamonds. The exterior zigzag shape was inspired by both Lily’s traditional cotton dishcloth design and Barbara Walker’s 4th Treasury book. The interior lace pattern of interconnecting diamonds is a variation of an old favorite. It was designed to be intricate, yet simple. The sample is knit in 100% bamboo for its lovely drape, sheen, and comfort of knitting (and wearing) year-round.

I hope you enjoy it.
