That's lovely, mochyn!
What sort of yarn is it? Looks sort of satiny - jewel colours.  |

do you prefer that or this:
The yarn is a Colinette yarn called Iona. Space dyed, a mix of wool, mohair and silk. http://www.colinette.co.uk/index.php?cPath=6_30
ETA that's the yarn for the honeyvomb, not the lace. That's angora. |

You can't compare them Mochyn - to go with a full range of coat/jumper occasion combinations - one would need both
at least  |

Well, there's always THIS weekend! Otherwise maybe we need another fibrecrafts weekend, such as we did last spring at ginkotree's. |

Did you crochet the lace one, Mochyn? I love the colors of the honeycomb and the ethereal quality of the lace. Gorgeous, both of them.
Will you post the pattern for the lace one? Pleeeeeeease? (I'm far to far away to come there and learn to crochet, will have to hash it out from afar. )

The lace is knitted. If I can remember the combination of stitches I'll post the pattern, but I don't often write them down because I like each one to be unique. |

I like the lace one.
The honey comb has reminded me that I meant to ask how to do bee-stitch. It's really pretty, as it looks like little bees. |
