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!"

Abalone, Swatched



Ok, all swatched, but I am still hesitant to proceed - the gauge is right on - row gauge may be a bit short, but that's ok ...

The colors in these pictures are too bright - crappy camera - they are much more rich and subtle, but it gives at least an impression of how it really looks. I think I'll do a pillow before I cast on - I need to get more fluid before I start. The tension seems to be all right, but I am very slow. You can see that the first rows are way too loose, and then in the middle I thought it was getting a bit tight, but overall it seems fine - at least to me ...
