I used to be involved in a large range of craft activities but in recent years have focussed mainly on quilting. As I don't seem to have the patience for hand piecing, I tend to have some knitting on the go. A knitting project can take me quite a while to complete as I usually only work on it while watching our kids play sport or on holidays.
I have just finished a lovely shawl using the pattern Ishbel.
This was my fourth Ishbel, all of which have been given as gifts over the last year or so. The shawl was knitted using Malabrigo Sock Yarn in Lettuce purchased from Eat Sleep Knit. Ishbel is a lovely, easy knit and makes for a very portable project. The yarn feels very soft and blocked beautifully.
I know it may be a while before you get to wear your shawl, Steph, as it is certainly not shawl weather in Melbourne at the moment - I hope you enjoy your shawl next winter.
I have decided to knit a different shawl next - I am trying the Haruni shawl which is a free pattern on Ravelry. What "on the go" projects do you have?
