Shawl madness!
I’ve suddenly gone completely mad about shawls! Browsing patterns, casting on new ones… I’m especially fond of shawls that have different sections, which make them perfect for using several different colors. I love going through my stash to see how colors work together! I can highly recommend Stephen West’s new class on Craftsy,…

FO: Arietta shawl
Arietta Ravelry page Yarn: 1 skein Noro Silk Garden Sock Needles: 5.5 mm *** Finished! Yay! ♥ Wow, did it only take me 4 days to knit? It took me over a month to get this photographed, though. Pathetic! 😛 I’m really happy with it, and recommend the pattern. Not too happy with the…

A month of craft #11 – A work in progress
Cheating and skipping some of the challenge themes, only indulging in some of them. It’s not like I don’t have things to post about, eh? 🙂 Look, look! I managed to really get into the Arietta shawl! Since it’s not blocked it’s hard to picture how it’s going to look here, but at least you…

Shawls…
I seem to have some bad luck with starting shawls recently. First out was my new yellow version of the 36 leaves shawlette. After getting through the setup, I looked at it and suddenly realized that I didn’t like this yellow! A bit too warm a shade for my taste, and it wouldn’t probably fit…

Arietta
This Noro skein looks so lovely, so it’s a real shame it starts with this yucky brownish yellow once you pull out the middle thread. *sigh* I feel pretty frustrated right now. I started the lovely Arietta shawl, but about 10 cm in I felt a bit unsure about my choice. Then I noticed I’d…

A month of craft #3 – An old FO
An old finished object! Hawthorne is a wonderful shawl that was a huge pleasure to knit! Knitted it last year in Drops Alpaca. I’ve gifted it to my mother, so I might need to make a new one for myself! 🙂 My exam today felt like it went well! I wish that…
