Tulip-doily or -tablecloth

As I told you yesterday I started a new piece of lace.

A beautiful lace doily or tablecloth (depends on size I will be making).

And I promised to post some photos today.

I made one picture on round 35, now I am on round 42.

Here it goes:



Let me know, what you think of it...

Distracted

So, I started to knit this beautiful piece of lace yesterday...

It's a Tulip Table topper by Erich Engeln (it's leaflet No. 24, if you are interested)
Very intriguing and very very beautiful...I can imagine it already on our table...

Well, I started to knit and went straight through to round 35 and I was very happy about it...
until...
I realized that I only had 4 chart repeats instead of 8.
Somewhere in round 3-7 I made a mistake...

A MISTAKE?
IN LACE KNITTING?
ME????

O.M.G. I must have been deep in thoughts and daydreaming far too much
and got distracted along the way...

what a shame...I wanted to show you photos today!!!

I had to rip it back and am going to start again tonight *sigh*

So I will update with pix tomorrow...

Happy Easter! / Frohe Ostern!



Sending you all wishes for a Happy Easter and some flowers from my garden!

Ich schicke Euch allen gute Wünsche für ein Frohes Ostern
und auch ein paar Blümchen aus meinem Garten!


My favorite movie of all time...



So romantic...
and yet so sad...
watching it right now!
AGAIN...*lol*

Sometimes... / Manchmal...

Photobucket...you will find something really beautiful along the way.
You might find it in a place you would never imagined you could find something like that.
It might come in a package you never thought you would have wanted or would have wished for.
You might not acknowledge it's beauty at first sight,
but when you do
you should make sure you never let it slip from your hands.

I have found my "something beautiful" and I am determined to never let it go....

I know this is a very cryptic message today,
but the one, who it is aimed at will know what I am talking about :-))


Photobucket...wirst Du etwas wirklich Wundervolles auf Deinem Weg finden.
Du wirst es vielleicht an einem Ort finden von dem Du niemals dachtest, daß es dort so etwas gibt.
Es wird vielleicht in einer Weise kommen, von der Du niemals gedacht hättest, daß Du es so willst oder Dir so wünschst.
Am Anfang wirst Du vielleicht die Schönheit dieses Etwas nicht wirklich bemerken,
aber wenn Du es tust,
dann solltest Du es niemals aus Deinen Händen gleiten lassen.

Ich habe mein "etwas Besonderes" gefunden und ich werde es niemals loslassen....

Ich weiß, das ist heute eine sehr kryptische Nachricht,
aber der- oder diejenige, die es betrifft, wird schon wissen wovon ich rede :-))
