Another KAL completed.  I love this one.  Thanks Stephen West for another great pattern, Earth & Sky.  Yarns used were Madelinetosh TML in Vanilla Bean, Curiosity & Warm Mushroom.  I've never used Madelinetosh before, it's my new favorite.  I might even knit up a sweater for Bill with their yarn...it's got has such a great hand to it and wonderful to knit with.

All Done

Here's the finished mystery shawl, blocking away on the patio table.  Before blocking, I always soak my knitted item in hair conditioner first. This shawl turned out exceptionally soft.

LOVE IT!  It's the perfect size to throw over my shoulders when going to a freezing restaurant.  Also the right size for just a little tied scarf.

The mystery shawl was so much fun, I decided to whip this up the following weekend.  It's a bit larger, personally not a fan of the beige (but it was in my stash) and turned out great.

This was knit several years ago...just never got around to taking pictures until now. 

Stephen West is the designer of  Daybreak, done up in scarlet/gray for my Ohio State Buckeyes.  I wear this one a LOT in place of a coat.

On my needles now (actually one of the things on needles) is Spectra, an awesome new design by Stephen West.

I was working on 2 separate shawls with the yarns.  After seeing the new design from Stephen, I frogged both and put the 2 yarns together.

...ok, I realize I have a shawl problem.

KAL WIP

I just started another mystery KAL (knit along for you non-knitters) from Ravelry. The picture is after finishing up the 1st clue. Now I have to wait until Sunday for Wendy to post the 2nd clue:-( I am not a very patient knitter when I'm doing a mystery KAL!!

Another KAL

Well...I've started another mystery KAL (knit-a-long) on Ravelry. I know, just what I need is another knitting project. But it's just so much fun!

This is just after the first clue. I'm using this. The colorway, Chimney, is no longer available. I'm really liking how the color is pooling. I didn't plan the red to be 'finished' after the first section, it just happened that way. I'm more than ready for my next clue on Wednesday:-)

I bought the yarn months ago simply for the fact that is was (kind of) Ohio State Colors. My plan was maybe several pair of socks or a baby sweater out of it. I'm sure once this shawlette is done, I'll have enough left for either 1 pair of socks or a maybe a baby sweater. (yes...I bought plenty!
