I've finally made Ice Queen! I have lusted over this design ever since it was published long ago. I fnally got some dark green mohair/silk from Sarah's Yarns to go with my dress coat and knit it. I didn't have green beads that went well because the green is so dark but I did have gunmetal grey with silver lining. Perfect. You don't really see the actual bead, just the sparkle. The effect reminds me of ice crystals on pine tree branches.
I just love nature and the colors of nature.
I have the next two days off with NO RESPONSIBILITIES. Yay! No place I have to be or job to be done. I plan on relaxing here at home in my sweats. I foresee knitting, spinning and maybe a little sewing. I'm sure Gryphon and I can get a nice walk in; then a little nappy for us both. Pure relaxation.
Thought for the day: A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

That is so lovely.
Enjoy your time off. Spoil Gryphon for me.
Your Ice Queen is beautiful! Dark green is one of my favourite colours! And those beads suit well with that yarn.
