    I finally have finished tatting Renulek's Spring Napkin, 2014 in size 20 Lizbeth, 655 Wedgwood Lt and 656 Wedgwood Dk. Took a while, but I had other things going on along the way. As is often said, life happens. It doesn't look to bad, but I need to block it now. I counted the stitches. There are just under 39,000 stitches in this work. It came out to be about 20" across.

    Ok, I hit it with the steam iron. That's usually all I do. I did pin it so it would lay better. Top photo is ironed. I just measured it with a tape. 20"1/2. Had to torture a few chains into place, but that's normal.

    I have my doctor appointment (general quarterly checkup) around the 17th and will give it to her then. She works in that office. I think she will like it.

    1. Thanks, Jane. I am glad to get it finished. Now on to the next one. There is one other lady there that I don't want to feel left out.

    1. Probably Renuleks 2021 Spring Napkin, but maybe not. Thinking about knitting some socks. Never done that before. It would be different.
