25 OctA confluence of design aesthetics and yarn choices

A few weeks ago, I came across the notes of a design concept I had begun several years ago but had laid aside when the aesthetics weren’t really coming together to my liking.

Lace Puffs Smoke Ring While reviewing the notes anew, the creative spirits must have been working overtime because I immediately ‘saw’ what could be done. As the design presented itself in my mental vision, I excitedly looked through newly available yarns that were on my list to consider for sample models. Stitches jumped onto my needles and now the design process was in high gear.

Here is a sneak peek of the result: Lace Puffs Smoke Ring made in Kraemer’s Sterling Silk & Silver yarn in their new color Lavender Scent.
