On a sad note, the creater of that design died last month from complications of Lupus.  I'm going to start that pattern next, in honor of her.

They are trying to get the rights to post the patterns on Ravelry.  Also, they (that's the folks on Rav) want to publish a book, with the proceeds going to the family or the Lupus foundation, of all her patterns.  

She was a lovely person.  She RAK'd me the pink yarn I used for a pair of socks.  She made the loveliest sock bags and just was a wonderful.

I know, it's such a sad situation.  I cast these on right before the news broke that she had passed away.  I plan on doing her Bellatrix pattern after I finish DH's socks.
