two repeats finished

I have finished two repeats of the basket weave section, I found it to be relatively easy compared to MS3. It's a straight forward design and I'm doing a lot better with it than I did at the beginning of MS3. It's because I had such a huge learning curve on the MS3. I had never read a chart before, for instance, or used lace weight yarn. I love the Zephyr! It's so easy to knit with. I am also finding the Knit Picks circular needle comparable to the Addi Turbo Lace, esp. considering it costs about 25% of the Addi price. It's easy to love.
I'll post a picture when I'm done with the basket weave section. I'm going to knit this piece as it was designed, with both the basket and the blossoms.

Rowan, I had that same learning curve with MS3 - charts, laceweight..arrgghhh!
Now I am hooked on lace, and I only buy charted patterns. Amazing what knitting along with 6,000 others will do...lol.
