Wool and Water

"How can she knit with so many?" the puzzled child thought to herself. "She gets more and more like a porcupine every minute!"

Rosebud is Finished too!


Another project that dragged on and on and on ....

I'm not sure this is my favorite shawl - I was upset with the thick and thin quality of the cobweb - it got scarily thin in places (not to mention the bug attack). I was right to be upset - this is the first time I've ever had breaks when I dressed a shawl - 3 of them (Not to mention hours of crawling about on the floor to fix them). I doubt after the Christening robe I will ever use singles again.

I think I wasn't happen with the needle/yarn ratio either - it looks ok, but I don't like working with such a large needle with such thin yarn - it makes for a wobbly design.

Ofcourse, it may be that it's just post finishing depression - after miles and miles of interminable edging - I always feel as if I never, ever want to do anything faintly resembling a shawl again!
