Card Bag and Another Lace Shawl

Hello Again Folks.  I feel I have been running in never ending race to-day.  However, I have caught up with things, and here is the bag to match yesterday's card.  I also made another bag to go with the second 21st card for the same girl.   To-morrow will be a cooking and baking day as the family arrive early on Wednesday morning.  Who knows what I'll get up to in the days they are here, but I'll let you know at some point..   I also finished my second  lace shawl in a Sage colour, but I'd say its khaki really.  I've already started a Shetland fir cone lace shawl for my next project.  I'm only knitting these at night, because I really have to concentrate.   Loving all the posts at the moment and I'm always inspired by the talented people out there.    Please look after yourselves as I may not be able to get in touch till the week-end.
Lots of Hugs Rita xxxx

Rita
The bag is that extra special touch to go with the card.
As for the shawl, it is exquisite and looks so fine and how I wish I had such a talent as you have.
Enjoy the time with your family.

The bag for the 21st card is nearly as lovely as the card (real close :-) ! What a grand presentation for your lovely card. That shawl took my breath away. So very delicate & lacy...I'm in awe of your knitting skill. That looks to be a most intricate pattern. It is just so beautiful. I know it's for someone you love a lot, because I can just imagine all the hard work that went into the making of such a beautiful creation. TFS & enjoy your family. Hugs

Lovely gift bag, very elegant. And that shawl is just stunning. It must have taken a lot of concentration. I don't think I've knitted anything as fine as that since I knitted a baby shawl for my son and he's 37 at the end of this month!
