ReplyDeleteI've decided I'm going to (hopefully) make my veil! There's a really nifty book out there called "Wedding Knits: Gifts for every member of the bridal party". I got mine on eBay for like $8 including shipping. It's got all kinds of things, a wedding dress, two veil patterns, random shawls/etc, a wedding album thing, even the pillow for the rings! (I wanna make that one too!) It's ruttin' awesome! I totally recommend it.
Thanks :)
