Mom loves the shawl, despite the bad blocking. She intends to show it off subtly at her grief meetings.

MS3 Draped
Finally, finally done and blocked. I seriously need blocking wires, or a thousand more pins. The pattern is just gorgeous and I feel bafdly that I couldn't block it correctly.

Thru Clue 2 of Halloween Mystery Shawl
See the bats? See the crowns for the bride of the Prince of Darkness? See the spider webs? Ok, it's not Halloween-y - vampires don't limit their outings to Halloween now, do they. I LOVE this lace, love the design.
!#$!@#$!#@$
Ever want to just jump in the fray and start swinging? You know better (least I do, if everyone did, there would be no point to this post), and I was pretty much asked to keep quiet so the drama would die down. Guess that's one more good thing about a blog, huh, that most likely very few will read - mine anyway! I will quietly vent my vent and hopefully feel better.
I'm well aware that there are some real nasty people out there in the world. Unpleasant, negative - but they're also the crafty ones who know how to turn on the charm, so you might not realize their true colors until you've known them for a little while. You don't see that ugliness because they know how to hide it. Put one of those individuals on internet forums, give them the anonymous non-face-to-face confrontation found on the internet" and their true BITCH colors come shining through. One might call that writing passionately, emotionally and one's writing style. I call it "you are an egotistical, drama queen bitch." And I have learned one more place, blog, forum not to visit on the net - I would hate to pick up that negative karma.
Ok, now I feel better. The good thing about all that is I had a reason to post on my blog! And I figured out (I think) how to just send my flickr pics right here - how cool! Another thank you to Ravelry for adding to my net savy.
