vanessaramaRohan has my cold now, poor baby. He came down with it on Friday, which was his birthday! I'm still coughing away like mad too. There has been much chicken soup made and drunk in this house over the past few days. But thanks to Ben, Lou and Adam, we had a lovely quiet Saturday night birthday get-together for Rohan. Ben even made yummy cake with butter icing!
This weekend I finished something, which is now blocking. This is Icarus:
It's made from remaindered pure cashmere from Colourmart and the pattern is by Miriam Felton (mimknits on Ravelry).
This is huge. The wingspan is over 6 feet. I know the spine is being blocked a bit crooked, but let's ignore that shall we? Look at the pretty closeup instead.
The first picture is more accurate, colourwise. It's a beautiful vivid blue.
I started this way back in... oooh... January? It seemed as if it would never end, and the rows just got longer and longer, so I would keep abandoning it for other things. I'm so glad I finally have it finished.
