Swatching and waiting

OK, so I refuse to give up. I spent a good amount of time on Sunday with the lace diamonds pattern. Had to rewrite it 4 times to get the stitch count right. I worked the pattern in some kitchen cotton just to practice. I have frogged the actual swatch 3 times now. I am still not sure my decreases are “perfect”. There are 3 lace swatches required.

There are a number of lace cloths here that might be modified.

Got an email yesterday saying my yarn might be in in 2 days, THEN will be shipped to me. Aghhhh!
