Sorry for the delay...KNITTING!!!

Okay, so back in February I agreed to test knit for Sam Roshak's pattern Icing. I didn't finish it due to unforeseen circumstances. 1. I frogged it and had to restart after 8 hrs worth of work, 2. eye infection 3. Eye infection turned into sinus funk 4. I had never blocked anything in my knitting life!
There now ya'll know. My secret is out.

So.... Without further a due, here is my Icing:
Yarn: Classic Two 389 by Kaalund Yarns
Bought at In The Making

How I blocked it: The old fashioned method. Straight Pins and foam board. :-)

I had to hide it from my cats. They wanted to eat the yarn as I knit with it and also the foam board. Since I didn't finish the pattern by the deadline, I bought the pattern. Only fair you know. I love reading Sam's blogs and she is a great designer. This is my first lace like project to have ever actually completed. Don't believe me? Check out Ravelry then.
Ya'll enjoy!!
