Out of the Woods!
The knitting of the Forest Path Stole is done! It has been handed off to my friend Kimberly (who finished hers in May) to do the blocking, since she has the rig for big rectangles.
It was done in Jaggerspun Zephyr, color Mushroom, took 6.95 ounces (hers took slightly less), done the full 23 tiers. Used a size 3 needle throughout. Didn't bother with a gauge other than close enough, it's lace, it's going to block bigger, anyway. Started August of 2004, with plentry of breaks when other projects took precedence.
Pictures and finished measurements when she gets it back to me, probably Friday or next weekend, if she can get to it this week. We're going to compare hers and mine side by side, too.
