Finished the Fichu and a Crochet Scarf

This weekend I blocked the Harebell Fichu from Victorian Lace Today and finished the La Mer crochet scarf.


The fichu had to be block in two sessions because it wraps around. This is how I did it.































And this is what it looks like. I'm don't think I'll wear this much, but it was very interesting to do.

The La Mer scarf is the first crochet item I done in years. The original pattern did not include beads in the scarf, just in the fringe. But I love beads! So, mine has lots of beads.

And speaking of beads, I started the Swirl Pearl shawl. I'm using Malabrigo Yarn Lace, which is as soft as cashmere. This shawl is done holding two yarns together, making it fingering weight.

All three are just beautiful! I love the way the beads trace out the swirlies on the shawl!

All beautiful! You're so productive! It looks like the fichu has 2 different colors. Does it?
