Last night while waiting for midnight with my DH, I cast on this:
The pattern is a shawl done in fan shaped modules and came from my bestest buddy, G. She found it at the Crystal Palace Yarns site. It is confusing at first but she was able to help me wrap my dyslexic brain around it, as she has been fighting with it on her own for a few weeks now. The yarn I am using is called Sunset though it looks like some sort of wild salmon color in the pic and is actually more coral in real life. I like it because unlike the darker yarns I can actually see the stitches while knitting in the dark watching TV ( which my DH can not understand how I can possibly not be straining my eyes and brain to do). I am hoping to have a significant portion of this shawl done before the end of the weekend ( or I run out of yarn, which ever comes first).
I am super proud of the baby blanket I have finished for my darling friend G's second daughter, who will be born soon but hopefully will wait until her due date to make her debut. I had knit a lavender blanket for her first born and am also planning matching cat eared hats for both girls if I can get my hands on the notions. The blanket is done in a double stranded basket weave stitch and in a goergous yellow but my camera doesn't like flourecent lighting sets so I am gonna have to start coming up with better pic stagin before I post much more of my work.
Oh and I also made these today:
YUM!
