Anna's Easter Dress
While we battle the evil cold/flu yuck that is devastating Texas (various schools have actually closed because of their epidemics--Anna's daycare is missing about 1/3-1/2 of the kids each day), I have been working through the projects.I made some progress on my Flower Basket lace last night--through the first repeat. I think if I could get one repeat finished each day that would be great progress! We'll see.
Anna's yarn came last night:

I went ahead and gauge swatched since I had a meeting this morning that was knit worthy. I cast on the contrasting color and started the bottom bit. The gauge is tiny, but the dress is fairly small. I am working on the back first, which is really important since I have an Intarsia class in a few weeks. I want to take my class before working the flower design on the front. Since this should be finished for Easter or spring, I am going to move it in front of my Coquette sweater. Ah, lists of knitting!
