I have been on the yarn diet since November of 2015!!! I cannot believe it myself that I did not buy any yarn. I am trying to make it 1 year without yarn purchasing. So, I was so trilled to have been gifted this amazing single ply merino from sparkstorystudio. Thank you so much Joyce for the yarn The colorways are just exceptional. I must add that the lighter colorway, called Atelier, is like no other I have seen before. Absolutely stunning!!! New shawl design is in the works.
I have not knitted much for the past few months. I was busy with travel and family illnesses and frankly did not have much desire for it. The pattern writing and publishing I think drained me somewhat from any desire to knit. Everyone needs a break even from most loved hobbies. After receiving this yarn few days ago I felt inspired and was knitting little samples today and thinking about new design. I am very excited to start new project with these beauties!
A little side note, I am very active now on Instagram. You can follow me there if you like. Thank you and Happy knitting :-)

As some of you might know, as of Fall 2016 I went back to college to start working towards my second Master’s. It has been more than 10 years since the last time I was in college and I was a little worried how it is going to go. So far so good :-))) but I am very very busy with my classes. No time left for a lot of things, knitting and Ravelry included. I miss knitting. From September to now I did not knit at all.
Now, I finally have a break from school until the end of January and will have some time to work on this design. :-) I hope I can finish everything and write the pattern before my classes resume.
