Finished Leno lace scarf




Here is the first row of the lace. Then the stick is turned on it's side to make a shed for the shuttle to go through. That will hold the twists in place.




This is the second row,instead of twisting 2x2 strands,started out by doing 1x1,then 2x2 crosses. That offsets the twists.





Here is the last row,doing a 2x2 twist.  This is the end of the scarf,so after the lace I wove about an inch of plain weave,then did a hem stitch.




Here it is finished with twisted fringe,ready to go to someone who needs a warm scarf.



Here is the scenery we enjoyed yesterday while driving to the cross country ski trail. Since it's a quiet country road I was able to stop the car and take the photos.







This is on the trail. They had just groomed it,conditions were perfect powder for skiing. This is a multipurpose trail,for skiing,skijoring,snowshoeing and snowbiking. Dogs are allowed on this one,and Pepper loves coming here. He has learned to come when I call if he gets too far away.  He runs ahead,goes off the trail a little to sniff things and just loves running around freely.
