Knit a Lace Bookmark!

Mary McCall sent me this great kit to try out. It's a lace bookmark kit complete with a little hank of slubby silk yarn and charted instructions.
Oh, how I love kits!
When I first considered knitting lace, some years back, a friend said: Make a bookmark!
I didn't. It meant I had to figure out what pattern to use, make sure it was charted, buy a skein of something that I may not use all of, etc. This is the way to go, you beginning lace knitters!

You can reach Mary McCall to order at Wool and Fiber Originals

I love kits too, everything you need right there, no second guessing or buying the wrong stuff. I may have to check out these bookmark kits, what a great contest prize. I am always looking for new contest prizes to give away.

I like that Van Dyke lace pattern. I think I might try to use that as the side panels in a second "Side Impact Sweater" I want to make. Thanks for sharing.
