Shoes + Stockings

I am finally joining the fun and starting some stockings! I am making the Vine lace stockings from Knitpicks in Fearless Fibers antique rose colorway.
They match my new shoes!!!
I am changing the pattern significantly because it has no relation to my reality. It is both too big and too small in different places and I am doing a picot hem on the top with a sewing elastic instead of just an elastic thread in hopes that they will stay up without garters.
I am in the throws of wedding cake making and will be heading off to Germany within the week.

Hello, your shawl is beautiful! I've recently bought a couple of lace patterns and am hoping to cast on soon with some Hipknits lace weight silk in purple.
Hope your well, Victoria
