The Friday Blither…



The Meanderthal Shawl is complete, as I’m sure you’re glad to know :)  The border is finished and a small edging was added.

Shawl edging



It’s just a line of single crochet in the rayon multi-colored thread with a small petal at the points of the ripples/lace.

Shawl edging


I realized as I was measuring it this morning that I don’t really know what size an average shawl should be because I like shawls to be able to double as coats :)  This one is about 60” wide and about 32” from top to point.

Shawl



There isn’t a pattern here because I literally made this up as I went along - and had a blast doing it.  But contrast the planning and plotting of The Lake and the Summer Sky - around 6 months worth - with this, which took about 12 days from beginning to end :)

I also finished this scarf last night…

And it went into the Dulaan 2008 bag :)

So now I’m kind of casting around for projects and I’m kind of thinking something small would be nice :)  Socks maybe?  Now that sounds like a possibility :)

There’s a new post at The Dye Pot.

Tea Rose for Two



...Tea Rose for Two, which is kind of a second take on an earlier dyeing effort.

Chatters is on for tomorrow (Saturday) night!  For now, I’ll go with the same hours as before - 8:00 PM - 11:00 PM, EST.  Hope to see you there!
