Mysterious branches

I blocked out the Norwegian Woods triangle so far, consisting of the Winter Branches lace pattern.



Is it just me, or do the branches look like inverted fern fronds at the center seam? Again, LOVE the asymmetry of this.

And the yarn, malabrigo lace, is just delicious. Whoever named this color Purple Mystery was totally right.

I am so knit happy today.

Gorgeous! I am enchanted by the branches, and I am not usually attracted to asymmetry.

That color is incredible. I love it, and the asymmetry as well. I could follow the branches around with a glass of wine in hand ....

Very pretty. I love triangles so I can't wait to see what comes next.

Because I have a 6-year-old, those branches make me think of the antibodies in the episode where Ralphie has a cold.
