Notes

Talk about a boring knitting project. Boy, this one took me forever, because I just plain wasn’t interested in working on it. The pattern looks fine but it wasn’t that much of a challenge, and same with the color, pretty neutral. I kept it at my office for a project to work on when clients unexpectedly cancelled, but I literally kept falling asleep while knitting. Then, for some weird reason, the same ten skeins of Sierra Aran, which usually produces a 2-1/2 foot by 6 foot shawl, ended up being 7 feet long and I was only on skein eight! Finally, I put this thing out of my misery, bound it off and lightly blocked the edges. It’s really not bad looking, but yawn….
