First off, I am tearing myself away from watching the news of the terrible tragedy still unfolding in Japan to write this post. My heart is with the people in Japan and those with family and friends there.

Lovely, lovely pattern, Cecily.
I, too, am struck by the sadness caused by the earthquake and the tsunami in Japan. The people of Japan are in my prayers.

I am wearing the Lavaliere that I made out of Madelintosh Worsted.
I have received several compliments — it is beautiful, comfortable and a perfect addition to my wardrobe.
Thank you for a great knit!!!
