Hanami, week 1

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

The first week of the Hanami Knitalong had the assignment of the beaded cast on and the first two pattern repeats in the basketweave section.

The picture above is actually a few rows into this week's assignment - repeat 3 and 4 of 7. This is an easy knit for lace. There are only a few rows where the markers need to be moved and all the stitches are just standard lace (k2T, ssk, slk2Tpsso, and yo). I wish the charts were a bit bigger to allow for notation; it's not an issue now, but when I get into the random 'cherry blossom' part, I have a feeling I'm going to want to count out each row.
