AAAARRRRGGGGGGGHHHHH.

It has failed me. My squeeze technique. Go figure.



Ready to cast off....not enough yarn. I know what you are saying...yes, those of you with measuring tools, scales and such!

And I thought I could have done one more repeat! HA!

Off to the LYS to get an entire ball so that I can cast off. Thank goodness this yarn is splicable - spliceable? (is that a word? With the current scrabble games at night with the hubby...I need to know so that I can tuck it away for when needed! "It's a knitting term"....yeah, I use that one alot!)

I was able to cast off...don't worry I will use the rest of that regia silk ball;)



Dry my little shawl...dry.

Beautiful shawl! My LYS just got in
Regia Silk and I bought enough to knit a pair of socks - so far she only has an olive brown and a denim blue, so when she has more colours that would please me for a shawl, I am off to spend some money!! I'll blow a breeze from here if it will help it dry!

Like Julsey said, gorgeousness (another knitting term for Scarabble?). Now I REALLY want more Regia Silk.

That shawl is .... ummm, what's the right word .... fantasmagorically incredulous. Sorry, that's two words. Fantasmacredulous. That's it.

Hi - linked here through my web research on the shawl - nice work!! I notice in the photo you've got it on what looks like a sew-ez blocking board...any comments to offer on it? I'm considering buying one (and making this shawl, obviously). You can email me directly - thanks!
