March 4th

Our usual Tuesday morning group today.     I cut some string for a new large korowai. I'm thinking of a white one. I managed to cut and start a cast on row before it was time to pack up. On Wednesday I got the pattern set and a few rows of taniko which I am doing at the bottom. 

It only took me three goes to get the first pattern row of the taniko done.  It is always tricky but...   Perhaps because I am listening to Tolkien's 'The Lord of the Rings' read by Phil Dragash on YouTube. 

I am using gold and silver threads and a heart design I have used before for a wedding korowai. However being on the bottom I have doubled the design.
