What? The Curtains?

I spend lots of time on Ravelry looking for projects that I can use to decorate my non-existent house. I dream of being able to outfit my home with lots of handmade heirloom items. Tablecloths and doilies are a given. Even tea cozies and runners can be made into great focal pieces.

But until a couple of days ago, I had never thought of curtains!

KnitPicks is offering this fantabulous pattern for free. I think the style is absolutely lovely. It's neither too dainty nor too drab, and I think such a curtain would look beautiful on a small kitchen window.

This curtain could easy be made from a cone or two of Peaches & Creme yarn. In fact, I think this may be one of those rare projects where making it yourself would cost less than buying it!
