Capelet progress
A rather washed-out photo of the capelet progress, two lace repeats now done (bar one row):
Just started the second ball of aran tweed, it made a lovely and invisible felted join.
Here's the knitting needle case I mentioned last week. It holds all of my 3mm to 7mm straights, my DPNs (you will see I have very few DPNs!) and all of my Addi circulars. I'm really impressed with it, it is beautifully made and has so many pockets for circs and DPNs. I have multiple pairs of 4mm and 4.5mm needles in there.

I bught this from EHwa Aprons on ebay who were extremely fast to ship from the US.

You're going great guns on the capelet already and I love the way it's turning out.
Yep, I may well have to have one of those needle cases. It's so pretty and very practical.
Is it me or are we all a bit obsessed at the mo? Love it :)
Your lace is so neat! I looks great and I love the colours. The needle case is stunning - what gorgeous fabic.
Oooh, that needle case is lovely and exotic.
I bet you'll have your capelet finished pronto. Looks like it's going fast.
The capelet is looking great so far. The yarn looks just right for it.
The needles case is so pretty.
The capelet's looking lovely and your needle case is stunning and very practical at the same time! Now you're tempting me .... ;-)
Your capelet is looking fantastic - looking forward to seeing future progress pics.
And your needle holder is lovely too - gorgeous fabric.
That needle case is fantastic!
The capelet is looking good, the yarn really suits the pattern :)
Hmm, I've been thinking of making that capelet - yours is looking good.
I drool at your new silk yarns and needle case. Droooollllll. Just as well I am on the other side of the world, though if the sea levels rise suddenly, you know why!
Your caplet looks like it is off to a great start!! The color is beatuiful! I love aran tweed sucha nice yarn to work with. I love the needle case I am going to have to look into getting one!
Oww, that's coming along nicely!
When I made mine I wish I had used a softer yarn, hope you'll like the finished fabric (I also used DB Aran Tweed but thought it was too scratchy to be worn against the skin).
