Well, Wool Winder was almost right!

It's Sivia Harding's "Mary Ann's Cashmere and Pearls Lace scarf"
I'm using Madil Kid Seta on my 3.5mm Addi Bamboo circular. (Which is honestly my favourite ever needle!) The beads are "A Touch of Glass" 6/0 glass seed beads in Teal Transparent. Although, to me, they don't look either Teal or transparent.
Anyhoo, heres my progress.

Not much, but I have been working on some top secret christmas things as well. I really like the Madil Kid Seta, although I had to tink a few stitches, and I think if I had to frog, it would be a bit of a pain. It's ticky and grabby, so I had better not make any mistakes!

This scarf is beautiful and I love the beads! Good luck on "no mistake knitting" or at the very least, good luck with catching mistakes early.

Hi Donna. That is beautiful. You're guilting me into getting out of this mindless knitting (felting)phase I'm in and start on some challenging stuff. Your projects are such a work of art!

Do you have a favourite overseas yarn store?

Scarf looks pretty! You always makes such pretty scarf/shawl.. I stick with un-holey (none lace?) stuff as I have bad short-term-memory (cannot remember all the repeats).. the YOs go all over the place and the stitch count fluctuates! Any tips for making lacey projects?
