So I finished the knotwork medallion from "Tara" by Alice Starmore on my current Afghan square. The medallion is gorgeous - it's one single line, woven in, under, through and around itself, and if my camera were here, you'd see how great it looks in green.
And I'm not with my camera because I'm with some family, including the lovely little girl for whom I knit the Rosetta Blankie. And the great news is that Rosetta has survived multiple trips through the washer and sustained no damage whatsoever. The better news is that said baby girl sleeps wrapped up in Rosetta just about every night, and what could be sweeter than that?
In other news, the Rosetta Girl's grandmother (on the paternal side, so no technical relation to me) has evil plans to bring me to the dark side of the universe known as Patchwork. I believe we're going to have lessons tomorrow, and I can't wait. Given my proclivity for color and form, and my lack of patience for sweaters that don't fit or have the right neck line, I think that patchwork could be very rewarding for me. Not that I'd give up knitting, but who knows what will happen here chez Jon...
