I have a friend getting married this spring, and have been wracking my brain about what to knit her. First, I bought some lovely champagne colored cashmere to match the accents on her dress. It was a lovely Jade Sapphire Mongolian Cashmere 2 ply, and I was working it in a scallop pattern to go with the Alecon lace on her dress. With months to go, I just knit the first 12 inches to make sure I would like it, and I have to admit, it was gorgeous. But alas, my friend was having problems with the tailoring of the dress and ended up choosing a different dress. It has no champagne accents. Back to square one! But this evening, I did find this beautiful lace garter, and it won't matter if it matches her dress or not. On the other hand, I'd have to find out the size of her thigh! Good thing there are a few months to go...
