yarn along update


If nothing else, Ginny's Yarn Along is getting me to post more often. haha  I do enjoy seeing what others are working on and reading.

I'm still working on the same books as last time: A little further in the Lord of the Rings, not so much in the others.

I'm making great progress on my Baby Quill Shawl/Blanket, however.


4 days confined to home after an outpatient procedure made for great knitting time.  Just me, netflix and this project.  I was able to zip through all the garter stitch and the old shale border in just over a week.  All I have finished of the edging is shown in that photo.  I'm very happy with it and would love to take a full pic with it all spread out, but, alas, it's trapped on a long circular needle that's not nearly long enough to make it look like anything more than a poorly constructed bag at this point.

Tomorrow morning we venture to Pittsburgh for our final homestudy meeting with our agency, so I'll have quite a bit of time to knit on the round trip.  By tomorrow night I'm hoping it resembles more of a blanket than a bag. :)

  1. I really like the border, I look forwared to seeing the rest. But I get it, I have a shawl that I cant lay out and it looks like a blob when I photograph it.
    I am also working on a Christmas Fairy, I hope to have it posted to share the directions on Friday.
