Since it has arrived (and been cooed over), I can now show the picture of the gift I made for the swap on Ravelry:



It's one of those "feather lace stoles" from the Exquisite Little Knits book. (From the section on kid mohair). I have one of these, made from some red Jaeger not-quite-pure mohair. For this one, I used the called-for yarn: Kidsilk Haze.

It's a nice yarn and all, but I admit I get awfully tired of working with it after a while. (And if it's cold in your house, don't pull out the space heater that pushes warm air using a fan; it blows the super light yarn all over the place and makes knitting annoying).

I got a PM from the person who is supposed to be sending to me; they got behind and it will be a while longer. I am trying to be grown up about this and not feel even a little disappointed but I admit I'm not totally succeeding..
