I worked on several things today. First off is my Fairy Moon by Mirabilia. I'm slowly doing the beading. I started in the moon. There are so many beads crammed in there that there is not enough space for the beads to lay uniformly. I'm doing this on 14 count aida so I know its not that I'm using too high of a count of fabric. I know when I view the finished piece from a distance it will look fine but I still don't like the beads looking messy. So, I worked a bit in her hair and around her neck.
I finished the shawl I was crocheting. It's called Dixie Charm and I used a K hook. I've washed it already and can't wait for cooler weather to wear it in.
No photo is complete without a cat in it! That was is Violet.
Since I finished crocheting something I started a new project. It is called the Emily Shawl and is a free pattern on Ravelry. I'm using a new to me yarn that I got from Ice yarns last week. It is a Silk Merino blend in a category 1 weight. The shawl is quite a simple but beautiful pattern. Once you get started you don't have to get looking at the pattern instructions.
Your Mirabilia fairy looks so pretty/ against the dark fabric.
