I lightly blocked the blue doily but didn't have enough pins for a full block. When z&a's dad looked at it, he said (and I quote) ' huh, I didn't know you were making a doily...'
Trust me, it was all in the tone...
The color's off. I've been reading the intarweb and trying to take better pictures. This is the doily without flash. And I was trying to play up the contrast, so it's not black, but a blue.
I did get rustproof pins and I've got to reblock so all the little loops pop out. All in all, a very nice knit. I do wish I didn't have to break into another ball of Cebelia for it, but oh, well.
Specs:
yarn: Cebelia #10 blue (1.1 ball)
needles: 2.5mm dpn and 2.5mm circs
time start: August 4. 2007
time finish: September 8, 2007
mods: none that I tried to do (eg. any mods would have been errors)
I did notice that my first center flower is a bit wonky where the round started. oh, well.
oh, well. Better get those pins out.

Just catching up here. I have the Anna magazine that should have that pattern in it...but I haven't checked to confirm. Must do that tonight as it is one of my favourites!
The doily looks great and I can't wait to see the Campanile underway.
I think your doily looks wonderful.
