09/22 - Off the needles and ready for a bubble bath!
08/06 - Eye stroke on 8/01 is delaying me knitting this shawl. (230)
07/29 - Knitting every chance I get. The beads are beautiful with the blue yarn! Wish I could speed up my knitting but I’m being careful so I don’t have to tink these long rows. (708)
07/25 - Only had knitting time today for one row, hopefully more time tomorrow. I’d forgotten how much I love beading! (1247)
07/24 - Adding beads every other RS row. Beading every row looked crowded to me. Lots of tinking to get the look I want, and so worth it! I’m not in a hurry to finish the shawl, I just want to enjoy the process.
07/23 - Clue 5! Ripped back the first few rows, I want to add some bling! I should have enough beads, but just in case I ordered more (from Aura Crystals). (648)

07/08 - Clue 2 finished. I’m not too sure about my mod, but I’m not ripping back. I added the eyelet row in Color A ending with 152 rows instead of 150. (1029)
A - 70g rem/28g used
B - 70g rem/8g used
C - 83g rem/8g used
07/07 - Completed clue per pattern, but I’m not fond of 4 stripes on top and 3 below the eyelets. Tink to do a mod so there are 4 stripes on both sides of eyelet row. (1077)
07/06 - (1214)
07/04 - This is easily my favorite MKAL. I love the textures and lace, and am looking forward to the next clue. Still have several rows to go on Clue 2. (1103)
