Eleanor, Finally!













As promised, here's Eleanor. I blatantly paid homage to the photograph on Fig & Plum's blog simply because it's such an elegant way to photograph her.

Details:

Pattern: Lady Eleanor, Scarf Style
Yarn: Patons SWS (color Natural Earth) 11 Skeins
Needles: Clover Bamboo US9 (5.5mm), 29" circs
Started: October 19, 2006
Finished: November 28, 2006
Dimensions: Big (yet to be measured)
Unblocked


I have actually worn her - once. It's unseasonably warm in Minnesota right now and the night we set up our Christmas Tree, hubby and I walked out into the front yard to see it from the window. (Weird, I know, but we do this every year.) Anyway, being that it was 50 degrees or so outside I didn't really need a proper coat, but Lady E was perfect.

Look at all that color! She's the largest and most exquisite thing I've knitted so far. I'm immensely proud of her.
