She CAN do it, She WILL do it

Yup, that's right...Nouveau has been conquered! And as it lays here in our computer room, I am admiring it in blocking/drying state....wooo hoo!

I found that 21 squares suited me just fine, as well as the 10 balls of Jo Sharp's Rare Comfort Mohair Infusion. Which is sorta strange, because despite being spot on with the square measurements, I could not have squeezed out 32 if I tried. Deadline is this Saturday for a wedding, and it looks as though my goal has been accomplished. As for the fuzz? Well, to be determined. But check out the difference between pre-block & blocking (wet still in the pic). I am sooooo in love with the stained-glass effects of this pattern.

The blocking one looks so awesome. You're right, it really does have a sort of stained glass look!
