The Infamous Rose of England

May 07, 2006

My name is Jennifer, sometimes known as Pumpkinhead. My partner for this competition is The Rose of England
Please note this is a picture of someone else's completed ROE
The pattern is from The Second Book of Lace Knitting
Currently ROE has been cast-on using size #1's and stash yarn.
The yarn is of unknown vendor, I purchased it at the local knitting guilds stash sale.
It had on brand name on the cone, paid $5.00 for 1 lb. of 2 ply lavender lace weight.
Currently on Row 22, which completes Part A of the pattern which in the photo is the center center section.
I have made modifications in regards to the published:
* The pattern called for crochet cotton #60 ''No way in __Hades__ am I knitting with sewing thread!!!''
* English needle # 12, might be using the same size....can't seem to find my needle size comparison chart
* Pattern is aiming for a 72 in. diameter...we will see how big this baby is gonna get.
