Blocking Bella

Here is Bella Botanica (designer: Karen Strauss) being blocked:)

I knitted it in green Cascade Lace with myuki iris beads. It has been a lovely knit, but I am not really happy with my cast off. I think I could have done a better, more consistent job.



I love the pattern flow and stitch patterns. It is also a lovely size. I've been thinking of designing my own lace shawl but keep getting side-tracked by other patterns (Boo, Snow Angels). 

What have you been knitting?
