I'm working on the lovely flower basket shawl as mentioned earlier. As several knit bloggers have noted, it's an easy knit, with lovely results. I may add on a couple of extra pattern rows to make it a little bit bigger. We'll see.
In the meantime, I leave you with my own, rather lame attempt at latte art:

Is it a Rorschach Test? Do you see what I see? I was trying to make one of those leafy branches and ended what looks like a little cup of coffee with steam on it. An accident, but kind of cute.
Want to try your hand at it? Here are some directions.

If you turn your head sideways, it looks like a woman exhaling smoke.
Really. :)

I regret that I din't make my Flower Basket Shawl just a little larger. I think I will add two repeats to my next one.

Nope. It's a candle with a flame.

Lucious latte... I see everyone's interpretations. Very neat! I'm eager to make the flower basket shawl as well.. what did you use to make yours?

Okay... call me crazy and it may be because I'm knitting baby items right now, but that looks like a woman, sitting cross-legged, holding a baby in swaddling. Please someone else see it and tell my I'm not nuts!
