Busy Busy...

So here is the Fan Shawl so far...

I haven't had much time to work on it the last few days. Needless to say I will be casting on #21 of the fan modules tonight.
   For those wanting to know more about the yarn I am using, it is Caron's Country in Sunset. Country is a  25% Merino Wool, 75% Microdenier acrylic blend multi-ply that is smooth and soft if a little bit splity. Now while Sunset neither reminds me of a sunset nor is a color I would have chosen, Country does come in 23 other yummy colors. How did I come by this yarn, you ask? Well check this out. I actually came across this while surfing my Facebook page. I just happened to have the labels they asked for and received 4 skeins all in Sunset. I actually found labels for one more skein that I sent off Tuesday so we'll see what color comes next :). Course now I hope it's the Sunset since I think I need one more skein.

I finished up and delivered the Basket Weave Baby Blanket for my friend G's soon to be born baby girl (she is trying to get here a lot soon then her mama is ready for :) ). While visiting with G, I snapped a picture of both the new baby's blankie and her big sister's as well.

 I love knitting baby blankets, I have 2 more I need to finish the edges on. Afghans are a fave of mine as well, my first project was a Ripple Afghan. But that is a story for another day.....
