Five-ish months of knitting on this shawl, mostly done during breaks and lunches at work. Yarn was a couple clearance cakes from Walmart.

Mein heutiges Update
Ich habe auf meinem alten Handy noch Fotos gefunden von Dingen, die ich vor einiger Zeit mal gemacht habe
Ein asymmetrisches Tuch mit Fallmaschenmuster. Keine Anleitung, meine Idee.
Die Wolle gab es damals bei Lidl.

I can finally post this. Made it for a friend's birthday and gave it to her yesterday - she loved it!
I used a hand-dyed yarn in 2 ply (lace) and almost 700 tiny size 6 beads.

Still deciding whether to do the Westknits MKAL - I've bought the pattern & now trying to select, if I do it, what yarn to use.
Went through my stash and have 5 skeins that I think work together. Big decision to choose which 4...lol

Had a rummage in my stash and was surprised to find a number of yarns I can use for the Mitred Blanket.
Think I'll sort out then start with the lightest. Probably buy a couple of mini skeins in shades I'm missing.

Saw this on Instagram and had to track down the pattern. I really love the colours used in this sample.
Think it would be a perfect way to use up all those left-over yarn from old projects.

Loving the way this yarn is knitting up, so soft. And I love the hand-dyed colour - Spring 2023 by Fibre Lily.

Well so much for deciding to knit the Foliosa shawl in pale greens.
My favourite yarn dyer just released her Spring 2023 colour and I love it.
Order 800m and it just arrived, looks even better.

Anyone doing this year's Westknits MKAL?
Been trying to decide whether to join or not. Been checking out my favourite dyers. Overwhelmed by all the wonderful gradient sets they've done for the MKAL - can't pick a favourite set.

Picked up a WIP shawl (had a rolled edge similar to Icord). Started knitting and realised I couldn't remember how I'd done the rolled edge. Fiddled for hours, searched the internet, but couldn't replicate it....argh! Pulled it all undone...boohoo. Put the yarn aside for another day.
Began something else...a new shawl. Completed the first 130 rows. Start of the first lace section.

After knitting 6 shawls and 2 scarves in a row I'm now knitting a pair of socks for a break before more shawls...lol
Hand-dyed yarns knitted in basketweave and stocking stitch.

Definitely won't be making it in pink but thought maybe soft green.

Been offline for a week after eye surgery so picked up my knitting after a couple of days.
Wasn't happy with original idea for granddaughter's shawl so started & finished a different design. Going to undo the other and use this pattern instead.
Though the other was too 'heavy/old' for them.
Need to block this and add tassels to 2 corners.
Anyhow - back to editing...

Started on the shawl for one grandaughter. I'm knitting both in the same pattern just using different pink shades.
As I'm doing my usual meandering I thought this time I should actually write the pattern down as I go so both will be pretty similar.
Work on my edits till about 2pm then knit until I go to bed...lol

Spent the morning working on my publisher's edits then gave my arms a workout.
Balled up 16 hand-dyed skeins for two shawls for my two grandaughters. I don't knit much in summer and as I want these for December I figured I'd better put any other WIPs aside and get started on these.
During El Nino it often reaches 46c (115f) - too hot to knit. Sadly could possibly go pass that figure this year.

Started knitting Snow Gum (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/snow-gum). Using 3 of the colours I balled up the other day.
Only knitting late afternoon/evening as I have my 1st round of edits from my publisher for my next book.

Finished one WIP. No real pattern, just meandered along until I ran out of the wool I'd set aside for it.
4ply (fingering) approx. 800m used. (400m main colour, 80m each of other 5 colours), 4mm needle.

Skein winding - my arm's already sore...lol.
Getting organised for my next few projects. Mind you I do have several WIP shawls and socks.
I love hand-dyed yarn - and I still have about 50 skeins waiting to be used! 😜
