So Close...


But...so far!


I only had a few more stitches to go on this shawl to complete the final row but there's just not enough yarn to make it to the end. I had to rip out the row and now I have yet another tiny ball of leftover yarn.


I know...I said I was going to work on finishing my vest and lacey socks. I haven't forgotten. Really! I guess I'm just practicing my avoidance skills. This is only the second shawl I've made in the past couple of weeks. Oh yeah...and then there was a pair of socks...and the sheep bowl. And, now, I need to block my new shawls. Hmmmm?! Maybe I need more practice with focus than avoidance! Ugh! Ok...I'll go get my vest project out. I hope another ball of yarn, a pattern, and a hook or needles don't grab me first! ;-)

Weren't you in a knitting slump not too long ago? Now you're a knitting machine! Looks very pretty. I love red.

KarenB hit the nail on the head - you are a knitting machine these days!

maybe it's the fact that it's a vest - I have a vest languishing as well - must get back to it...
