So I picked the Midsummer Night's Dream Shawl by Judy Anderson. Multiple charts at the same time, beads, the works. It is completely beautiful and I absolutely love it. Normally it would sit on my "to do" list for "someday" as I would probably not devote that kind of time to knitting something just for me for fun. It was, therefore, perfect for my purposes. I even have yarn for it.
But, this kind of backfired as my swatch (which I cast on when I was very tired, bad idea) just frustrated me further. I think that is what I get for casting on late at night without a good plan and a needle that is so long I was wrestling with it instead of knitting with it. All the sudden my great plan to boost myself up was looking a little more like "what the f*%# was I thinking?"
New plan: Evelyn A. Clark's Shetland Triangle from Wrap Style knit out of the really lovely Manos Silk Blend I bought at the Ravelry party at Unwind in Burbank. Easy, beautiful, and still all for me. Should be done in a matter of days.
I've said it; now let's see what kind of fallout that brings!
Uh oh, I think I feel the wind picking up. I hope it isn't the s*#% storm starting already....
