Holiday Knitting...

Well theres a big fat zero on that front...

took my wildflower socks, got to the toe on the first sock then lost the flow, surrounded by sea wasnt feeling the green....

.

so as had taken my gorgeuos Araucania Ruca Multi,



decided that I must stop coseting it and start knitting it, so, cast on for the northern lights shawl..., ripped, cast on, ripped, cast on, ripped.....


shit shit shit..not getting the pattern, and the pattern still not right for the yarn.

so cast on for the simple shawl..., getting on ok, but the araucania was to subtle and was thinking it to simple for the yarn.. so did no knitting therafter...



couldnt find a decent yarn store in the wilderness, so after much tutting decided on reading instead...

once home, surfed the net and have decided to use this pattern.. Gail..


wish me luck I sure do think Im going to need it, but its stunning...

I love the yarn for your socks.
I've never knitted a shawl, but want to do one this year - these are really lovely patterns
