Loads of nice ideas for draping, folding, and wearing great swathes of lace.

Patterns
Available from the Cast On Shop, or Ravelry.
Brother Amos - Knit with the saints or fry with the sinners, your feet will look great either way. Inspired by the fiery preacher in the British modern classic novel, Cold Comfort Farm, by Stella Gibbons, Brother Amos' socks feature a lace stitch pattern reminiscent of the flickering flames of hell where, according to Brother Amos, we're all doomed to "fritter and fry" for eternity.
Mrs Beeton - A free pattern, first published in Knitty.com, Mrs Beeton wrist warmers are the essence of romance, with soft ruffles that look wonderful peeking out from under a jacket sleeve, and beads that catch the light and sparkle at your wrists.
Driving Miss Daisy - Wrist-length fingerless driving gloves feature a daisy lace stitch pattern on the back of the hand, a thumb gusset for comfort, and a garter stitch wristband with single button closure for a snug and sassy fit.
Oh, this is *so* useful! I always wonder if I’ll REALLY wear those shawls I want to knit.
Thanks!
Thanks Brenda for the shawl video-now I’m wishing I were a shawl knitter…one day in the future…in case you’re wondering if Cast-on podcasts are being missed…YES!!! Looking forward to Halloween for the new series. Hope you’re having a lovely break.
Great ideas! The oblong, peach-colored shawl reminds me of a clapotis! I’m going to have to watch again to see how she wrapped it for some additional ideas for how to wear my clapotis.
I think these are Knit Picks chicks! Their voices sound really familliar…
How is it that I’m a fan of your podcast from day one, I sit next to the gal in that video at work, and yet *just* noticed that you’d posted the video here? Oh, the powers of observation… I’m glad you found the video helpful!
Very good – though I think I will give the bip-version a miss, I have enough to fill at my front 😉
I just made my first lace shawl and this was a GREAT video!
Love it!
What’s the name of the second (green) shawl? I don’t think they mentioned it, but it’s beautiful!
Paragraph writing is also a excitement, if you be acquainted with after that you can write if not it is complicated to write.
