It probably would have been more logical to learn how to make broomstick lace with (a) worsted or chunky weight yarn; (b) a bigger hook and (c) working flat instead of in the round. All of these things (or even two out of the three) would have made learning the technique just a bit less fiddly.
Yeah, but where would the fun be? I'm doing it in fingering weight (Malabrigo sock yarn) with a 5mm hook and making a cowl in the round.
And for all that, the project isn't a fail. I'm about halfway through the cowl, designing on the fly and I'm not dissatisfied with the result so far. Pictures will be posted sometime soon.
Oh, and I got some laceweight Malabrigo today. Now THAT'S scary. :)
