Shawls Away...

So much for being consistent about blogging again huh for some odd reason there are days I think ok I am going to sit down today & blog because I actually have things to say or show but I never get around to doing it. So here is to trying to get back on the blogging bandwagon.

Saturday night I bound off  The Age of Brass & Steam Shawl by Orange Flower. I enjoyed knitting it & may again at some point. I still need to block it out to get the final measurements. Once I get it done I will be sure to take a picture of it & post it here.

Before I went to bed Saturday night I cast on Ishbel (yes again lol). I am going to see if I can get all the way thought it this time without messing her up this time around. I am using a lovely skein of yarn from Little Red Bicycle. This yarn was a gift from a good friend of mines Susan aka AuntSuze on Plurk. The color is Ethereal-Violet. I am still on the stockinette portion at the moment but getting close to starting the lace. This time around I am going to be a lifeline Queen you can be sure of that.

For some crazy reason I joined a KAL for a shawl called Glissade Shawlette by Linda Browning.  As soon as the yarn arrives I will be casting that on. I haven't even begun knitting my Christmas ornaments yet. I decided I am going to knit everyone a ball just a different color for everyone in all I have 20 of them to make 22 if I make one for Mk & I.

I need to get around to picking out patterns for the babies that are due early in 2012 & I need to get cracking on some Monsters so on that note I am going to say goodbye & take my insomniac self to bed & try to get some sleep
