It's downstairs blocking as I type!!

I took the "fishtail lace" portion of Annie Modesitt's "Ruffled Roses Scarf" and only did two side by side patterns but carried together one liliac and one purple in the Lamb's Pride Worsted on US 15 needles. It was a fairly quick knit.

This is a gift for one of my Charge Nurses at the hospital. She is so centered and peaceful, she made my period of orientation in the ER a much more tolerable experience.

Compared to the Liesel Scarf

Compared to the Liesel Scarf lace pattern that PaxKnitter is doing... this "Fishtail Lace" is a cake walk! Easy and elegant.
