Grace

I just finished Kate, am still working on Audrey and now there is Grace.
Lisa started this great knitalong and though I was determined to finish up other alongs before I joined another, here I am.

I just did a bit to make a knit commit to the project.

I am using GGH soft kid. It’s a new yarn and fiber for me all around. I'm not groovin' with the mohair at the moment, but am committed to trying new fibers to completion before ultimately making a decision on the yarn. I have had this yarn for a while and have been a little nervous about using it but I am excited to finally have a great pattern and the wonderful Lisa to encourage its usage. So now I have a few things to finish before I continue.

You call that 'knitting just a bit'. You are too quick. I'm going to pace myself against you :)

Holy god - you just started? Wow, I am glad I had a head start, or you would be finished much, much quicker than me!!!!! Yeah...

How in the world to you finish these things so fast? I am SO ENVIOUS! Looks like you're going to finish Grace in no-time-flat. Can't wait to see the finished product!

That's the GGH mohair? What colour is that? I LOVE it!
Great job!

You have to give mohair a little time. It's tricky stuff at first, but well worth the effort. I hope this hasn't put Anouk on hold - I want to see it!

Wow! I have been dying to try that yarn. I hope it works out for you in the end, so far it looks beautiful.
