Everytime I hear someone say "as the sun sinks slowly in the West", I flash on an old cartoon, no doubt a Looney Toon, and chuckle. I was getting all smug about being the most West, but realized I live on a globe and west-ness in all relative. The more I think about that, the dizzier I get, so I'm going to cut it out now.
I attempted to translate Pink into English so I could knit the socks up in the much abused and crunchy blue Wildefoote. I managed the pattern but will just have to wing the gusset and toe.
Chris , enabler that she is, has talked me into starting Shetland Triangle, and so far I haven't thrown this lace probject down in disgust. Her pink Jaggerspun Zephyr example was so lovely, I couldn't help it. The little Fir Cones pucker up, so I hope my alpaca version blocks out as nice.
That makes 4 projects on the needles, a new record for this former serial knitter!

That is such a gorgeous picture! You are more west than I am!
Beautiful photo! Also, thanks for the link to the "pink" pattern, its really interesting looking (even though 3 years of high school German isn't helping me translate it!) :)
Gorgeous picture. How is Chris doing? I miss her!!!
That is an amazing photo! Have you sent it to Sandy yet? She would LOVE it. And how is Chris? I enjoy reading her trials with lace because I feel the same way at times!

Looking down my way, I guess...gorgeousness!
Yes, I never really know if East is East or if it's really West, after I start thinking about it. So much better to assume the world is flat...
Pink is a cute sock! I didn't realize you spoke German. Renaissance woman that you are, it should come as no surprise!
that's a gorgeous picture!

I am amazed at some of the sky views you get over there. You have been knitting like crazy girl. Missed ya!
What an amazing pic - thanks for sharing! I'm looking forward to seeing how your "Pink" - version turns out, it's been such a fun knit! And if you need any help with translating the pattern, feel free to tell me, I'll be glad to help!
