What was your inspiration?

Laura Nelkin's class is so much fun! She's a wonderful instructor . This was a joy to make from start to finish.

What are you most proud of?

I knit lace! Even my husband is impressed ;-)

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I have no advice other than to follow along with Laura.
I need to get some materials to block. Mine is just done by laying it out and I'm sure it would look better if it had the proper tools. But I was too anxious to finish it.
Also, I almost ran out of yarn and had to omit two rows of knit towards the end (before the edging). My advice: buy plenty of yarn.
