Two days late, but here anyway! Right now all I’m working on is my Just Beachy shawl (Ravelry link) . I got the stitches cast on for a cardigan but am now waiting for the needles I will need to go any further. But until then – I’m making good progress on the second half… Continue reading Friday FWIPs
I’m back to having three projects on the needles! First is my Drops cardigan, which I’m knitting out of yarn hand dyed by my friend Alissa of Headknits. I started this over the summer and then set it aside for some Halloween knitting. At this point, the back and fronts are done and I am… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs

It definitely made the knitting more interesting, if… Continue reading Perfect Blend Shawl Clue 2

I got a good start on my last run-through of my new crescent shawl design. The first 2 versions used 100 yds each of 4 colors – 1 beaded, the other not. I wanted to try a version with 5 smaller miniskeins of a more average size. When the directions are finished, I should have… Continue reading Crescent Shawl Design – Last Version, I Swear
