Sadly, it seems I'm having a run of bad luck with my projects, those socks that look so lovely up above actually have some issues.

As if that wasn't traumatizing enough, my skeiner ate a skein of lace weight yarn last night - it was the first and last skein of the evening, the skeiner was put into the corner for a time out. We'll be having another discussion tonight. (Why yes, that does mean that the dyepot has been busy :) ) The good news is the skein wasn't a total loss - it just has too many knots for me to want to put it up for sale, so I'm now looking for a suitable lace pattern to cast on for.
I'm thinking I might have to knit the Irtfa'a Faroese lace shawl - it's gorgeous....and newly added to the shop. I've knit rectangular lace, and triangular lace - faroese lace would be new :)

Oh the humanity! I am glad to hear the lace survived it's brutal mauling. You think those skein winders are domesticated, and then one of them goes and does something vicious.
Maybe those socks need to be threatened with a trip to the skein winder. Maybe then they would behave themselves!
