Swatch Time

I'm at the beginning of a rather large project. I'm going to design and knit a wrap to wear at my upcoming wedding!


This swatch is testing out a lace motif. It's a nice oak leaf but not really what I'm going for.

And this red one is for gauge and to see how different stitches look in the yarn I'm using. I also wanted to use this yarn for the MaidenShawl pattern, but my gauge is so far off its not even funny. If I have to get more yarn I'll be starting it even later and won't be able to knit along with the group!
