Finshed Peppermint Twist back.
While peppermint twist was unceremoniously dumped in my knitting box I decided to have a go at some of the lace patterns in my knitter's Bible. I wasn't very successful though, so I didn't bother taking any photos. I seemed to go okay at first, but when it came to repeating the pattern again it just looked a mess.
I got my first Rowan newsletter the other day. There wasn't really that much in it, but it has made me decide to join Rowan International. You get 2 Rowan magazines a year and a free pattern a month.

Well done, you'll love all the gorgeous designs, the only problem is simply trying to decide which ones to make!
The back looks awesome. Your stripes look perfect!
Shame about the sleeve. I was working stripes recently and have to rip was a pain in the arse! Good luck. Make sure you bring lots of patience! :)
The Peppermint Twist looks lovely, Paula! Good luck with the sleeve.
Have a nice weekend!
I had similar fun when I made Peppermint Twist last year (it was a way to use up loads of bits of pink in my stash). I ended up with the shaping going all to pot at the armholes when I knitted the front when I realised I'd done the decreases all wrong. It'll be gorgeous when it's finished.
