Finished hint 2 in the Superfine Merino yarn on Saturday. Good way to finish up Ground Hog’s Day.
The merino is not as soft as the cashmere, but it does knit up well and shows the lace pattern stitch definition.

I finished hint 5 of the SoSii stole this morning. What a beautiful pattern this is turning out to be! Just love the design and the way the stole drapes.
I have slowed down on my knitting due to too many things to do and not enough time to knit. So while hint 7 was posted this morning, I will be starting hint 6 sometime later tonight (I hope…)
As our son’s wedding draws closer, I find that I have more things to do related to the wedding and less time to just sit and knit. But, I need to stay with this project as it is intended to be a gift for the bride to wear on her wedding day.

I finished hint 6 last Thursday but haven’t had time to post the pictures. The stole is now two-thirds completed and is about 40 inches long.
The pattern continues with the lovely motifs that are repeating as we knit.
I have hint 7 nearly completed and I hope to finish it this evening.
I will post Friday.
Since hints 8 & 9 are now out, it’s clear that I am behind and will not
complete this KAL on the timeframe. I should, however, have it done and blocked in time to give it to the bride for her wedding day.

If you’ve never done a Knit A Long — give it a try! My first was the Secret of the Stole — and I really enjoyed it. (See my earlier posts.) DK does a wonderful job with the designs and moderating the KAL. If you are interested in trying knitting lace and want a project with lots of support and encouragement, I’d recommend joining the Secret of the Stole II KAL.
The Secret of the Stole II Knit A Long begins January 18, 2008. The KAL is still open for those who are interested but have not yet joined. For further information or to join the group go to:

Good knitting! Lindy
