Penultimate veil update

I have since gotten married, but I have yet to organize my pictures from the wedding.

With less than a month to go, I cast off my veil, washed it, and blocked it. True to the pattern description, I stretched it to six feet in diameter, but the way I wore it prevented it from being a train on the ground, which was good because I didn't want it to get dirty. I will have a last post with it on for my wedding, but that will come later.


I couldn't believe that my entire veil condensed into this sink! I was also surprised that the water changed color. Months of dust in the air did attach to my veil, so I'm glad I washed it out!



My first blocking attempt. It turned out that I needed more blocking mats, so it was more oval than circular. I waited a week for my order to arrive so I could block it correctly.


The final blocking. I still didn't have enough blocking mats, but they served my purpose. You can see more of the detail here. 

Happy knitting!
