Yesterday I took a quick train trip to Salem to the Peabody Essex Museum for the last day of the
Joseph Cornell show, and I'm so glad I did. It was a full survey of all his work. There were many collages and box constructions I hadn't seen before, along with many favorites. A day full of wonderful images, and a very blue-colored day. It was an extremely well put-together show. I believe it travels to San Francisco next-go- if you're in the area.
I crocheted this scattered web lace for a sweater while I was traveling on the train. It will be the lace top in the new
Loop d Loop Crochet book. I feel like the fabric is a little stiff even though I have the right gauge. I may block this piece and see if it softens up. Tomorrow, some rug hooking to show you!

Oh, I'm so jealous that you saw the Cornell show! But I've seen a number of Cornell shows over the years, so I guess I shouldn't whine.
The web lace looks very nice. I'll bet it will soften up after blocking.
Bonnie, It did soften up nicely!
