It never fails to amaze me hoe men without set squares etc produced such gorgeous work that has stood up for centuries. As for the knitting... I am gobsmacked! Fabulous colour blends in a Kaffe Fassett pattern I recognise from all that time ago. Works so well though. Congratulations on wrestling with metre long needles. I could not do that for love nor money.

That church is amazing, even in the photos you can almost feel the history seeping out of the stones.<br />The shawl is a work of art, is it really only two colourways of a variegated yarn? It give such beautiful shadings of colour. I think you are going to need it in the next few days too!

Let me start with what a pleasure it was to see where you took that long, long walk.<br /><br />To be able to see a church that has been around for so many generations is quite a gift. I am sure that its arches must have planted a notion that showed up in that delicious looking cake.<br /><br />Thank you for the recipe. I might have to try it myself. If I do get around to it, I will send you my comments.<br /><br />Now...that shawl is magnificent, and I thank you for the link to the source of the gorgeous yarn. I love starting with some vintage KF inspiration, either shape or fair isle concept and then just playing with whatever yarn I might have handy.<br /><br />Please do make a little cap from your left over yarn!<br /><br />xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220897337333701839.post-41812705233618545972012-01-30T22:31:38.380+00:002012-01-30T22:31:38.380+00:00What a great weekend; I love your shawl, how cleve...What a great weekend; I love your shawl, how clever to make up the pattern!Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01989624921423448745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220897337333701839.post-81680983220796609932012-01-30T22:02:07.242+00:002012-01-30T22:02:07.242+00:00I'm in love with your shawl Celia, it's st...I'm in love with your shawl Celia, it's stunning!
