Twenty-two rows to hell

The worst day knitting is better than the best day working.

Even when I am making a shawl from Joslyn's Fiber Farm Shawl Club. This is the March 2005 selection and I am just starting it. I restarted this about 10 times! I got smart and put in a safety line so that I don't have to rip all the way back when I make a mistake. At this rate I will finish by my 50th birthday. Stay tuned...

A safety line? Why have I never thought of that!

It may be going slowly, but it looks gorgeous.

Clapotis Done !!

Image
My Clapotis is finished! I love this pattern. I love this garment. It is so versatile. I made mine out of a beaded rayon which knit up just beautifully and drapes perfectly. I'd like to make another out of a wool, silk blend next for warmth. This particular clapotis will be perfect for spring and autumn. Clapotis makes me happy !

Fabulous Shrug

This is a really simple shrug that both Lani and I made out of Waikiki. Another project that I did while I was trying to figure out what to do next. I don't have any big projects planned right now, but I have some gorgeous yarn coming in the mail - {must get to mailbox before husband}. This shrug feels so light and airy. The pics do not do it justice. It is hella cute. Fabulous Shrug 2  Here is a close up of the waikiki knitted in garter stitch on 10.5's. It's hard to see here, but I love the little nubbies in it and the colors are all the rage, don't ya know. waikiki up close  Fabulous Shrug

Another FO. This is Cleo from Knitty. I used Schaefer Laurel (I think this is my fav yarn right now). The color is great. Too bad the model is not. I still need to put in the elastic so it will fit better at the high waist. I really like this pattern. I think I will defo make it again but with a little more coverage over my sagging you-know-whats :) This is Cleo
