well so much for deciding to knit the Foliosa shawl in pale greens.
My favourite yarn dyer just released her Spring 2023 colour and I love it.
Order 800m and it just arrived, looks even better.

Picked up a WIP shawl (had a rolled edge similar to Icord). Started knitting and realised I couldn't remember how I'd done the rolled edge. Fiddled for hours, searched the internet, but couldn't replicate it....argh! Pulled it all undone...boohoo.
Began something else...a new shawl. Completed the first 130 rows. About to start the first lace section.

After knitting 6 shawls and 2 scarves in a row I'm now knitting a pair of socks for a break before more shawls...lol
Hand-dyed yarns knitted in basketweave and stocking stitch.

@SuzyShearer @knitting a soft green would be beautiful. π

Saw this shawl on Instagram & had to buy the pattern.

Definitely won't be making it in pink but thought maybe soft green.

Been offline for a week after eye surgery so picked up my knitting after a couple of days.
Wasn't happy with original idea for granddaughter's shawl so started & finished a different design. Going to undo the other and use this pattern instead.
Though the other was too 'heavy/old' for them.
Need to block this and add tassels to 2 corners.
Anyhow - back to editing...

Spent the morning working on my publisher's edits then gave my arms a workout.
Balled up 16 hand-dyed skeins for two shawls for my two grandaughters. I don't knit much in summer and as I want these for December I figured I'd better put any other WIPs aside and get started on these.
During El Nino it often reaches 46c (115f) - too hot to knit. Sadly could possibly go pass that figure this year.

Started knitting Snow Gum (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/snow-gum). Using 3 of the colours I balled up the other day.
Only knitting late afternoon/evening as I have my 1st round of edits from my publisher for my next book.

Finished one WIP. No real pattern, just meandered along until I ran out of the wool I'd set aside for it.
4ply (fingering) approx. 800m used. (400m main colour, 80m each of other 5 colours), 4mm needle.

My hand-dyed yarn from https://sallyridgway.com.au/ arrived last night. The blues are for the Venezia shawl while the others will be for two shawls that I'm still deciding what patterns (also need a few more complementary skeins). They're for my young granddaughters who are into pinks and apricots.
Waiting on this month's sock club yarn & pattern to arrive as well as the yarn for another shawl.

#Fiberuary - #IntentionalHoles day 6
#Lace #knitting - pattern is "Shetland Tea Shawl" - a traditional #shetland shawl, circular, extremely lacy.
I've given it away a long time ago, because while I very much enjoyed knitting it (it went surprisingly quickly) I'm absolutely not the person to wear such shawls.
The most fascinating thing is always the transformation that happens through blocking.
