Time to Finish My Shawl

 The tinking is finally done.  It looks like I will have 3 or 4 rows to knit before I do my bind off.  The pattern is Grandma’s Summer Shawl available on Ravelry or your local yarn store.  The yarn is by the French dyer la Bien Aimee in Paris. The yarn is a DK four skein gradient in super wash Merino. I am using a U.S. 5 or a 3.75mm ChiaGoo SWIVEL Interchangeable needles. Near the end you will need to attach a 50 inch and an 8 inch cord together. It is quite wide at the bottom.  

The shawl is no longer a problem project. The shawl is now just a regular UFO.  Today I knit 2 additional rows and still not have passed the tinking mark in the final skein of the shawl.  I might be off on my final estimate of how many rows that I need to knit before I cast off. 

Below is a picture of a form problem project.  I brought it to Bruggers Bagles to work on it with friends.

Pay Back Time

We all knew it would happen. It was just a matter of time. My body has gone in to rest mode for a few days. Eric has made ot to school 4 days this week and all my body wants to do is nap and relax. I am so tired that The creative forces are not flowing. So in between resting I am working on UFO's. Which is ok. I am working on projects started several years ago. Everything has to get finished or tinked sometime. Well it's time to call it a night.
