Still fussing with numbers and charts and decisions. . . decreases for the sleeves, buttonhole placement, 3 buttons or all the way down the buttonband (?), you know, the regular decisions for a sweater. But we're close, really close to having the first baby top down sweater write-up done. Yay.

Otherwise I've been working on a Lace workshop project. I've decided on a crescent scarf.
It starts at the bottom with the lace section, perfect for a workshop. To finish it off some simple short rows are worked. It's done in DK weight yarn for a quick project but can be adjusted for finer yarn. I think this will fill the bill. This is a local event. The class will be run through Simcoe County Arts and Crafts Association in April. You can come and see demonstrations of the various classes and other heritage crafts at the Celebration of Arts and Crafts on March 6 at the Simcoe County Museum in Midhurst, ON. I'm looking forward to it. I'll have another try at spinning that day too, yay.
