Needle: 4.5mm circulars

It has been months since I last posted an official FO report. Blame the procastinator in me, I have a few others on hand which have yet to be photographed. Anyway, Lady E has been sailing smoothly with me. It was a good chance to pick up entre-lac, something that had me curiously sought after. Yarn-wise, I had a good time picking at the tweeds and what's-not from the single ply, machine spun of 45% Silk, 45% Kid Mohair and 10% Lamb's Wool.

I thought I would be knitting this for a longer time, but when i reached the 6th ball, things started up pick up. The real adrenlina rush was when I start to cut the trimmings. I was so close yet so far. Thank goodness, the weather had been dry and hot and she was able to dry in one day after her bath. And then she stands taller than me.

And then came the time to do the knotted fringes. It took like 3-4 hours just to plan and get the knots done. And then it was the last knot, took a deep breathe and it was over.

Not really over, it's just the start of a new relationship with the Lady Eleanor.
