Lace

I very rarely get caught unawares at my apartment. I can always hear when people are coming up the stairs, or at least I thought so. Maybe I just wasn't expecting her but I got caught knitting the above yesterday. She walked in the door before I could hide it but luckily she was distracted by the one pound cone of yarn I was knitting it off of.

A while ago she lost one of her favourite scarves - a large, black silk shawl thing with a fish print that she used to drape it all over her shoulders and look glamorous in. She was pretty upset about it so I started making her this. I'm told it will look better when it's finished and stretched out. I certainly hope so.
