I've tried to start my first lace project. Hooray! But unfortunately, I don't have any stitches on the needles right now. I'm still trying to figure out how to cast on and knit the first few rounds. But I'm determined to keep trying. I've joined a mystery knit along. I've got some beautiful pink heathered yarn to start my first lace. Its louet Gems in 100% merino wool superwash in baby rose.

I'm reading a few other blogs trying to get a feel for what I need to do to get started. I think I've figured out what to do. I'm going to try again in a few minutes.
Another item of note, my favorite yarn store is having a birthday this weekend. They are having a big sale and cupcakes! So go by and support them. I know I will be. If only to get cupcakes. I just spent tons of money in there earlier. But I do want to get some new yarn for the new baby's blanket. Of course, Evan's blanket is still not quite finished. And Grant is asking for me to make him one too, but he has a hand-made blanket from one of Mrs. Peek's friends. But any way go support Sugarfoot. They are great there.
