"Central to the appeal of knitting is that it works like meditation. Everything becomes quiet, still, and peaceful, and all the turmoil of life seems to succumb to the silent rhythm of the needles and the orderly progression of the stitches. There is a simple, sensual pleasure in the colors and textures of the yarns, and for me, inveterate adherent of the work ethic that I am, it provides an excuse to sit still, for after all I am accomplishing something worthwhile." -- June Hemmons Hiatt

I re-did Patch #2 Lobed Leaf (blocking)

I decided to re-do Patch #2 Lobed Leaf. Originally I added two stockinette stitches on each edge of the lace panel to extend it to 31 stitches. There wasn't room for the lace to open up, so I frogged the swatch, and eliminated the side stitches.

Here's a photo of the swatch blocking. It looks MUCH better.
