Haruni is high on my queue, but I'm still building the skills to knit it. :)<br /><br />~ EmilyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16680104339356915961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907965358165765267.post-45567885514171196432012-12-08T21:28:47.425-08:002012-12-08T21:28:47.425-08:00Hey Emily, it's Davy!

I knit one for my best friend to be her wedding shawl, so I can definitely say it's challenging (not impossible though!) and totally worth it! I definitely second using lifelines, and knitting lace will require you to really be able to read your own knitting. It's great practice =)D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04186478951544351840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907965358165765267.post-23371264436069590262012-12-03T14:28:35.843-08:002012-12-03T14:28:35.843-08:00Hi!

There will probably be a ton of frogging over the course of this project so lifelines will be very helpful.

They are very helpful when you make a mistake and will save you from ripping out your hair. <br /><br />If you don't know what a lifeline is, it's basically a long (cotton) string that you thread through your stitches after a pattern repeat or wherever you feel like it (maybe every 10 rows or less?). If you make a mistake, you can go ahead and frog back to that row with the lifeline and don't have to worry about re-knitting 20 rows or something. :DMDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13807653255324325366noreply@blogger.com
