And it's great when a pattern has enough going on to keep you interested. <BR/><BR/>(Flat Daphne reminds me (unsurprisingly) of Flat Stanley, the project of the 8 year old daughter of a friend in Canada. My job was to take the paper doll on adventures -- which I did admirably for 3 months. There are pics of Flat S and I enjoying London's sights, the theatre, the ballet, a few races, a cricket match and a couple of trips to Europe. Then one week before I was due to return him to his creator (the 8 yr old, not some Flat Stanley god)I lost him in a cafe in Scotland.)<BR/><BR/>(The 8 yr old apparently cried for quite a while when she was told of FS's decision to run away to the Highlands.)<BR/><BR/>(This carelessness with FS does go some way to explaining why people don't trust me to look after anything that requires feeding.)Soohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08072821039582965057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463307798012270911.post-70921624018435551272007-09-21T09:54:00.000-05:002007-09-21T09:54:00.000-05:00Dear GretchenX,The yarn is silk/mohair from ArtYar...Dear GretchenX,<BR/><BR/>The yarn is silk/mohair from ArtYarns. Lisa Souza's mohair is very heavy--it needs a #8 needle. I will use it for an afghan or perhaps one of the Faroese shawl patterns that I have, which need a worsted-weight yarn. More for winter knitting than summer.fleeglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06348327363198905898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463307798012270911.post-4453905779718218202007-09-21T09:47:00.000-05:002007-09-21T09:47:00.000-05:00Daphne is lovely - with or without bumps!@lori LOL...Daphne is lovely - with or without bumps!<BR/>@lori LOL on the IBTCNurhannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04467345452701105149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463307798012270911.post-89130735459115775642007-09-21T09:36:00.000-05:002007-09-21T09:36:00.000-05:00You find such lovely patterns!
