Would you like to see progress on the Eyelet?

Have you made something with a diamond eyelet pattern?   It may not be a wrap... it could be a blanket or a lined skirt.  I am on my second ball of yarn. I really hope it fits when I am done.

Here is my progress so far.
 
 
Too bad things like jobs and eating get in the way of crocheting.

Diamond Eyelet Wrap Sweater

I was gifted a pattern for a lovely wrap quite a while ago.  I have not made a wrap before but I do love the detail of the diamond eyelets... they are so special. This pattern is really easy to follow once you have gotten thorough it a few times (Rows 2-7 are repeated a lot!).   The yarn used is Patons Canadiana in Violet Mist.  I got the yarn a while ago and was saving it for a special project.  It has a small amount of sheen to it.

If you would like to get your own copy here is the link:

I am really enjoying it.  Once in a while I just have to look at the pattern to see what I do with the end and beginning of each row.  But so far, so good!

 
You just keep crocheting it really long then it gets wrapped around your body and sew a few edges together.  I am looking forward to that part.  :)
Crochet Spot is also offering a Crochet Along soon. I may have to see how many projects I have on the go before I commit.
