I’m a couple of rows further along the transition chart. It’s so lovely to just sit in the sunshine knitting, and have a cup of tea. No cats keeping me company at the moment, though 😄 #LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingProject #ShawlKnitting #KnittingLife #KnittingLove #MosaicKnitting

I made the transition chart, and spend some time knitting it. Those rows are really long now, though. Over 400 stitches! In this picture, I worked 8 of the 16 transition rows 😃 #LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingProject #ShawlKnitting #KnittingLife #KnittingLove #KnittingPattern #MosaicKnitting

It's growing! I'm still into the second ball of yarn, I will have to see how many more rows this will give me, before I start a deep ribbed edging 😃 #LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingProject #ShawlKnitting #KnittingLife #KnittingLove #KnittingPattern #LaceKnitting

Myshel knit this gorgeous London Vibes in a gradient yarn. The shawl is still unblocked in this picture, so the lace hasn’t opened up completely yet. But honestly… that texture! 😃 www.ravelry.com/projects/mys... #LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingProject #ShawlKnitting #KnittingLove #LaceKnitting

Usually, I write my draft pattern, including charts before even casting on a stitch. That way, my own project also acts as a knitting test of sorts. When on vacation, however, I go old school 😁 #LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingProject #ShawlKnitting #KnittingLife #KnittingLove #LaceKnitting

This London Vibes was made by my dear tester StarStrong. Instead of a kid-silk yarn, she chose a sock yarn in a pale lavender shade. Isn’t it gorgeous?! I so love seeing how different yarn choices give a design a unique look 😊 www.ravelry.com/projects/Sta... #LaVischDesigns #Knitting #ShawlKnitting

I couldn't resist photographing my WIP rolled up, like skinny scarves are often shown. I see the appeal: That slipped-stitch edge rolled up like this looks so satisfying! #LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingProject #ScarfKnitting #KnittingLife #KnittingLove #KnittingPattern #LaceKnitting #RMRYarnCo
