Shawl.....

So I'm making a shawl for my friend Jen's wedding, for her not for me. Unfortunately i don't think it will be ready by the shower, but will definitely be ready before the wedding. I originally started a different one but was unhappy with it - it was going to be really big and i didn't want that. (also someone spilled something on it - so i guess it was for the better)

I started a new one that i absolutely love!

Here is a little peek:

I'm keeping this one in a Knit Pouch so no one can spill shit on it.

I'm a little disappointed it wont be ready for the shower but at least i know it will be finished.

Hopefully there will a FO post for this soon!

Till then.....

Good times

So last Saturday Lelah and I took a trip into Montclair and went to Modern Yarn. I had a great time and bought some new yarn. Modern Yarn is a great yarn store and i didn't get a weird vibe like i do from some other yarn stores I've been to, it was just a nice place.

I got a skein of Malabrigo Merino Worsted


I'm thinking about making a hat with the Malabrigo, not sure which pattern but i do have a few in mind.

I also bought 2 skeins of Koigu KPPPM


The color of these are just so awesome i had to buy them, I love me some variegated prettiness!

I wish i took more photos of the yarn store and of Lelah and I, but i always think of this shit after the fact, DUH!

On another Duh note i had my company "Holiday" party last night. I have 0 pictures from it because i didn't bring my camera, hopefully someone has some pictures from the night that i will post (after i steal them)

It was at the Imperia in Somerset (for those of you in my area), we had it at the same place last year. It was a good time - and they had a photo booth!

I have been seriously slacking with my knitting so hopefully soon i will get back into the swing of things and have some updates on what I'm working on.

Till then!
