It's all about the Birds!

Pictures from the swifts this last weekend, and a Finished Object at the end!! It's beautiful.




This is one of the hawks that was stalking these little swifts.
As it grew darker, they started spiraling into the chimney.










My Mystery Stole 3 is off of the needles as of Monday night!! I blocked it yesterday/today. I could not get the wing to block the way I wanted it to. The bind off in the pattern is too tight.

The theme ended up being Swan Lake, and this is the wing end. You can see the feathers, I think they are beautiful.


Cat's Paws like the ballet steps.










The stats on it. Grignasco MerinoSilk in Dove Gray from Woodland Woolworks. I might have used half of the ball, maybe. Size US 3 needles.
