FO: What happen when lace and cable became friends?

In my opinion, lace is lace, and cable is cable.  They are both beautiful on its own, but they don’t go together well.  Since when I became an adventurus, I combine the two together in my new creation - kid mohair lace, with merino wool cable sweater, my original design.

My initial idea was to use the merino wool to make a vest - with cable at the bottom, and plain at the top; it was hibernating for a while. When I picked it up again, I realized the top was way too big….maybe 40″. So I decided to rib. The next thing I know, I realized I have a ball (440yds) of the kid mohair sitting in the stash starring at me. There it goes…..make use of the mohair texture and use lace as the top. But how would it looks like…..it was a mystery until I tried it on today. My mom loved it; other said it’s innovative; one other said “different”, meaning it’s “weird”, I guess. Oh well, it’s my original design and like it.

I tried to use the same angle when taking the pictures like what Lillian did….but it’s nothing close to her photographer quality. I just adores her photographic skills….

And do you know how hard it was for me to write a new post….I want to open my blog and see all her beautiful photos as my blog’s headline. It was just bea-ti-ful!
