Pretty Purple..

Ishbel has been blocked & is now nicely tucked away in the Ziploc bag I have in my drawer for shawls that I don't wear. Yes I admit it I knit shawls but don't wear them.

I have thought about getting a dress form to put them on but really I have no room for that so folded up nicely & stored away someplace safe. I knitted the small version of Ishbel & to be honest I think at some point I am going to knit the large because this shawl is gorgeous.

On the needles right this moment I am doing a KAL that is going on in the Tinyknitters group on Ravelry. We are knitting the Glissade Shawlette by Linda Browning. I am using a ball of Kauni Wool 8/2 Effektgarn

I decided there is no way I am going to get an ornament done for everyone this year so I think I will start them early next year so I have then all done by Dec 2012. I know that if I only get a certain number done & some people get left out due to lack of time there is going to be all kinda of drama around it so I am not even going to put myself through that right now.

I need to make a list of items I need to knit & when I need them done by that would probably help me out immensely . I also need to make a list of  things I want to learn next year. I want to make a list of yarns I want to try so I can start trying them out.
