Cherie Amour is coming along very nicely! So far, I've practically knit a halter top. I love the rusty color and the lace pattern and overall the promise of how it'll turn out. One pattern alteration that I did was that I knit four rows in lace pattern 2 before beginning the neckline. The right and left fronts are a little annoying because the pattern does not spell them out for me, so I had to do some calculations (aargh...brains!). So, that's where I am now. Here's a photo of it that I took while I was ribbing. I just loved the way that it layed out flat. I might make a doile out of the same lace...haha. Or not.
When I was getting that picture, I also remembered that I knit a hat that I semi-designed on my own. I used some leftover yarn from the hat I made for Joe last year in Austria. The lace pattern is called "Ravelling Leaves" from volume one of Vogue Knitting's Stitchionary. Here it is, modelled by my lovely little sister.
