Late again!!! Was hoping to post early but the sick bug is in the house so I have been deep in disinfectant all evening. Poorly girl now in bed.
I've been sewing more than playing with yarn the last few days but I have got another Elise shawl on the go. Absolutely love the speed of this project and I have the pattern memorized now so can watch TV and crochet. Its another ball of Artists Palette sock yarn. I'm left with 37 grams or 161 yards on the skein - any ideas for a project??
Also started the Summer Mystery Shawlette by Wendy Johnson. This is my first Ravelry knit along and I am loving it - nearly completed the second clue. Thankfully only had to frog a few stitches on the first row and everything has been fine since. Its such a good feeling to get to the end of the 200+ stitch row and realise that you havent messed up! I will be using lifelines on this one.

What a pretty, summery shawl. The colors are wonderful. I love those types of patterns that are easily memorized and relaxing to work on. Can't wait to see how the mystery shawlette progresses.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors on the first one, pretty pattern too. Anxious to see it progress
ReplyDeleteanother doing the knit along!.cant waite to see how these turn out! i am just not brave enought to take part yet lol
ReplyDeleteThe mystery shawlette sounds good - and the colours will be so gorgeous! I know what you mean about getting to the end of a long row to find no mistakes - unfortunately doesn't happen often enough to me!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty shawl. Don't you love those that you can do without thinking?
ReplyDeleteI haven't done a KAL but so want to! I LOVE the colors of both the shawls, but especially the bottom one. That teal/blue is electrifying. I wonder if you have enough left over yarn of the first for a small shawlette. If not, you can always make a hat with the remaining!
