Summer Lace


We're having an unusually hot summer and I'm guessing that this is why I'm drawn to lace projects. Yesterday I finished (finally) Evelyn Clark's "Go with the Flow" socks from Interweave's "Favorite Socks". Now I'm working on a shawl (own design)with a simple lace repeat. It's sort of brainless and soothing and even though it looks like a piece of shriveled nothingness right now, I'm concentrating on how lovely and useful it will be next fall. No photos of the shawl yet, but here are the socks, knitted from Trekking's pro natura wool and bamboo blend.
