Look what I found in the WIP bin in the basement…
I pulled my Mother’s Day cast on project from hibernation. This is the Old Man Of Storr shawlette. I’m still in the garter section trying to get to 52 garter ridges. I’m around 38 last I counted. The yarn is heavenly to touch and the garter is soothing. But as is the case with most center out shawls….the rows are getting longer and longer. This shall be a test of my patience!
Happy Knitting!!
As I talked about awhile back I frogged my Clapo-Ktus shawl. I just wasn’t feeling it. So I fell down the Ravelry rabbit whole and came out with 22.5 Degrees by Martina Behm. It’s a straight forward garter stitch shawl with YO increases and all knits. Perfect for current state of mush for brains!
I pulled out some Hiya Hiya bamboo circulars and got this baby on the needles. The pattern is designed for highly variegated but I think my solid royal blue will be just fine and fit my wardrobe just beautifully.
I even managed to sneak some wine and knitting time while the hubby was doing bedtime with Jellybean. Pure bliss!
Happy Knitting!!
