Knit lace edgings for bath towels

These will be for my Auntie to put in her newly remade guest bathroom that she has worked so hard on.

The towels will be sage green and the leaf edging will be white, the tooth wide garter stitch lace in sage as well.

More pictures of the Adonienieroschen knit doily

Adonienieroschen knit doily from "Old World Treasure" by Gloria Penning. the pattern is stated as done by an "Unknown European Knitter" but some think its Neibling. I dont know but its a lovely pattern. I used size 2 circular addis and pale pink Lacey Lamb yarn by Jade Sapphire. Very nice yarn, comparable to size 30 crochet yarn I think. Very light and airy doily. Blocking took a long time with so many pins in the edging. The kb1 and p1 part of the center flower was a real pain but the results are just fabulous. This is for my Auntie.




This one is Kreuzlblute from"Old World Treasure" by Gloria Penning. the pattern is stated as done by an "Unknown European Knitter" but some think its Neibling. I dont know but its a lovely pattern. Am on row 67 right now and there are 89 rows plus the edging. Size 10 white crochet cotton and size 3 addi circulars.

Adonienieroschen from OLT in pink Lacey Lamb by Jade Sapphire laceweight, (comparable to size 30 crochet cotton I think). Its 26 inches round and weighs like under an ounce, very light as a feather. This yarn is a dream. I never used it before and will use it from now on for my top quality doilies.
Currently on the needles Kruzelblut and Velma. Velma in minty green crochet cotton size 10and other one in white crochet cotton size 10


This is what I have been working on the last few months. Lace has always been a passion but in doily form its even nicer. I have some new books that have awesome vintage patterns from European knitters, some are Lillie Meitler and some Neibling, some unknown. They are so lovely. Right now I am working onthe Kreuzlblute that is attributed to Neibling.




I have decided to make the Harmony cardigan by Kim Hargreaves. Its a lovely lacey pattern and will be nice for warm or cool weather. Not a winter item, an in-between. It is only one of the 21 awesome patterns in the Nectar book. Will be the first thing I have knit for myself to keep.
Here is a pic of what it looks like.

Bootees

The pink hello kitty face ones are from the Japanese craft book with ISBN in a previous post, nice pattern and looks good when done too. Purple ones are Debbie Bliss patterns.

Just a conglomeration of all the little bootees, hearts, dishcloths, etc. I have been working on. Those that have only one shoe, I didnt like well enough to make a pair. I have a whole bag of them somewhere in this hovel of a house.

This scarf is a Fiber Trends pattern by Eugene Buegler. I have had it along time but am just now using it. Pure Alapaca yarn with number 4 bamboo needles. I altered the pattern by adding a ruffle to each end that I got from a Mac and Me pattern. This was an easy and quick pattern to make. Its 60 inches long with the ruffle.
I am currently making the double fuschia lace scarf with blue alpaca.
