The original of this photo was not very interesting, but I like it with the embossed effect from Microsoft Photo Editor.
I just looooved this pattern! Any pattern that this tattered old brain can memorize is a keeper :) The yarn, Schoeller+Stahl Fortissima Socka Cotton, is a lovely wool/cotton blend that feels wonderful again the skin and is ideal for the warmer months ahead. And how can one go wrong with denim blue?

my 2nd attempt at the emboss resist technique. need to work on it more and find the versafine emboss ink pad. my M's didn't have it so i had to settle with a tinted emboss ink pad. i didn't know it was going to dry in a tint of pink....i thought they would be like those purple glue sticks for kids that disappear after drying. [NOT so much!]
