Finished Hidcote - Sort of




I was happy and excited over finishing my hidcote March 2. I blocked it and then a thread broke leaving a large (very large) hole. Maybe my yarn was not as stretchy as I thought or there was a weak spot. I haven't had the heart to try to fix it yet. It is safely tucked away with a copy of the pattern until I can bare to look at it again. It is wonderfully soft, though and very pretty (even with the mistakes I made in the last chart).

I've finished a pair of socks in the meantime and hope to get started on my forest path stole. I enjoy entrelac and absolutely love this shawl. I just pray the yarn doesn't break!
