Fun with Noro Lace
Rose knitting again
We liked the way Silk Halo yarn from Mont Tricot looked after knitting it into cosy shawls! The Lonely Tree pattern seemed to work, so we splurged on an entire ball of Noro Lace yarn, from Knotty by Nature . Rose has been working on her new knitting project… Shawls for All!
.
Such pretty yarn!
The colours in Noro Lace yarn make beautiful variegated Hitty sized shawls…

This is why you block it!
…but they end up with interesting edges!

Every one unique

Quimper Hittys 
Oh these look so beautiful! I am NOT letting Hitty Madge see them!
Perhaps Granny Estelle can knit?
Now that is an idea…I am sure she can. 🙂
These are gorgeous!! I adore Noro. Do you mind if Hitty Jean knits some? Blocking is magic, yes?
Hitty Jean should definitely knit some – Rose believes in Shawls for All!
How thrilling! I will place an order for some lace yarn tonight!!! Will keep you posted!
The Country Hittys are in awe of you and Rose! They are also quite annoyed that their person does not knit.
These really are lovely, the pattern and that variegated wool….just beautiful. The girls will look so fancy wearinig them on a cool day. We also love Roses comfy chair!!
It has taken Rose a while to get the hang of knitting, but now she won’t stop…She does enjoy her comfy chair (recently acquired from a Thrift Store).
Ohlala!!!!!! What beautiful shawls!!!!! Superb work and wonderful wool. Quimper Hittys will be warm and elegant. Person here has to get going on the knitting! But it’ll have to wait till September…too busy otherwise right now. Don’t think I’ll get similar results though….my girls will have to make do. Indeed, beautiful chair!!!!
September is a good time to knit…cool enough in the evenings for the shawls to be used right away. Rose is a bit sad to have to put them all away until the cooler weather.
So very pretty!
I am glad you think so! Rose appreciates all the kind comments!
Totally beautiful.
It is very tempting to get another ball of yarn, they have such beautiful colour combinations…
that chair is a gem and the perfect place to enjoy some knitting. btw what thrift store do you find such treasures?
That particular chair is from the WIN shop on Cook St…I am always on the lookout. It is funny how the eye becomes attuned for little things. Hittys are slightly larger than the typical dollhouse dolls, so it is always a bit of a challenge.
the doll house is set up at the art gallery, by the bell and carriage. a bit small for the Hittys but fascinating.
I haven’t been there in a while – we’ll have to make a trip up the hill one of these days!
Hitty Knitter has done a really beautiful job with that Noro wool! Those are lovely shawls 🙂
My knitters are very impressed and Gisella has asked me to get out the ball of Noro lace weight Sekku. We had always found it difficult to imagine what to use it for. Too thin for socks..
love from the Wren Cottage Hittys 🙂
We look forward to Gisella’s new shawl! I think a human-sized lacework scarf would be pretty nice too!
