I’ve got some more knitting in on the Estonian lace stole. Here, you can see it after I finished the set-up rows 😃

With Zeeaster, I managed to complete those last 12 rows in the repeat of the body patterning. I used up a bit more of the yarn than I like. Still, I've got about 1.5 balls of yarn left to work that ribbed border 😃

Look at Gaby’s red-and-gray Helsingborg shawl! She used the mosaic as a band in the body, then repeated it after extra red garter stitch. I love how she played with the design to create her own unique version 😃

I managed to cast on 257 stitches, that took a lot of counting! One of my half‑liter cups broke, but I found this one as a substitute. I love large mugs; only 4 cups of tea a day and I’m hydrated 😄

In this picture, you can see that I'm 12 rows in. In other words: Another 12 rows to knit before I can start that deep ribbed edging! I expect I can show you the start of it soon 😃

As you can see, I wound the lovely lilac silk yarn for that new sideways knit scarf design with Estonian lace. I've decided on "Wistaria" for the working title of the pattern 😃

I found a working name for this design: Zeeaster! The second ball of yarn is completely knit up, so I attached the third ball to complete the repeat of the patterning 😃

Isn’t this gold-and-scarlet version of Helsingborg stunning? I adore how these warm, rich tones blend. Brillejh made it larger than my original, so pretty! 😊

With those long rows in mostly garter stitch, this project has been a favorite to combine with some reading. I better start looking for another project with straightforward knitting! 😄
