metamorphosis in progress

The ugly duckling brown blob of knitting that was scrunched up on two circular needles
is currently undergoing a lacy metamorphosis.

Hemlock Ring Blanket, bound off on round 121, 53" diameter, nearly 2 skeins of Cascade Ecowool used. I soaked it last night, spun and pinned it this morning.

Each member of my family, upon seeing the transformation in progress, reacted with an expression of astonishment and admiration. Them's good knitfam peeps. :-)
