It is a very `plain` kind of lace , but easy to make and very pleasing !!! mirjam


Thank you Mirjam,

It is very slow here this summer as usual.

Myself, I have been out fishing 3 or 4 times a week as I said.

I caught 5 large mouth bass yesterday at a small lake in Cherry Valley,Illinois not far from my town. It is a local park. 3 were 17 inches and bigger, nice fish.

One of the guys saw my knitting needles in my walker and had a ton of questions. He was looking at me real funny. I told him how many years I have been knitting and Crocheting, he was not impressed. Yes, I out fished him by 3 fish. I told him maybe he needs to take up knitting, he kept quiet. :)

He is a good person, I have seen him there and talked to him before. Men still have this uneasy feeling about men that knits or crochet.

Mirjam,

The whale was on cnn a while back. I also saw a documentary about your town. It looks like a nice place to live if the bombs are not falling. It would be a great place to visit.

The lace will turn out fine!

Hugs & God bless, Dennis & Gail
