Noro Lace Weight for Weft and Warp. JUST. DON'T. DO IT.

Gave Noro lace weight a try.

Used it for weft and warp...

Good for weft -not for warp.  Too delicate.  
I finished it though 
-thought it would be a good learning experience.  
I learned that some learning experiences 
are not good for my soul.

Mardi Gras baby!


At Mardi Gras the traditional 'King Cake' has a plastic baby inside.  The person who gets the slice of king cake with the baby has to bring the next king cake to share.  King Cakes are covered with yellow and green and purple sugars -the colors of Mardi Gras.  This is Mary!  She looks like a King Cake -which is perfect (because she has a baby inside... can you tell?!!!)  -postscript: I wove the scarf!

Ali's wearing the pick scarf I used as a backdrop for this blog.
Guess I'll have to make one for Elliott -not pink though!
