Very cute!
Oops -- I hit enter before I finished my comment. Wanted to say that I'm so glad you're designing -- looking for your designs to start showing up on Ravelry soon and on to knitting stardom.
Sure could have used your help recently, Miss Knitting Guru, on the most annoying 'Ishbel' pattern (my first lace attempt). Well, actually could be my lack of skills that's annoying not the pattern -- ya think? I think I've frogged it about 5 times then finally gave up. Think I'm going to order some Knitpicks needles and try again though - KBO as Winston C. might say ;-). Speaking of which, did you see "Into the Storm" on HBO the other night? Very good, I thought, but I'm a big Winston groupie, go figure
;-).
Oh,Yes...That Little Yarn Ball looks so cute with your pattern.
