One last picture before it is finished!!! After this photo was taken, I have finished many, MANY more repeats, and now have 15 to go. I should have it done tomorrow or Friday, and plenty of time to wash and have it ready for Knit Nite!!!
After this, I'm going to do something FAST and EASY!!!!!
Oh my, I must be certifiable!!! But I do like it!!!!
I love to knit, crochet, and now, thanks to winning a sewing machine, a renewed interest in sewing.

Verge II and In the Pink Update
I made another Verge for a friend who loves black and white!!! Love this pattern!!
In the Pink Update:
I have one row of purl, then I start the edging. There are 438 stitches, and the edging is worked on 5 at a time, so it's going to be a while, but I LOVE this shawl. Below, I have the triangles finished; that was a bit of a challenge!!

IN THE PINK is in Timeout
I have the left and right wings finished; I have read and re-read how to put it together, and I am a bit intimidated to start, so I'm pondering right now. I may have to bring it to Cluckfest for help (hint, hint, Gerry)
Anyway, here are the pieces. The wings should curl around the center, but the needle won't let me do it properly.
Enjoy and be envious!!!

Solitude = lots of knitting time
During my "seclusion" in Wichita, I finished a scarf, and started "In the Pink". The center of the shawl was relatively easy and I had it finished in 2 days!!!! Now, to take a deep breath and start the 'wings'.
More to come...

Another UFO now finished
I think this is the last UFO in the house!!! Except for the shawl in time out; and the mate to a slipper that hasn't been started yet, otherwise I'm caught up.
there are a couple of in-progress projects in the car, but that's another story.

Promise kept!!! On to "In the Pink"
I kept my promise to myself and got the second WIP finished and blocked.
Rustic autumn shawl, made with sock yarn, turned out wonderful!!!!
It's hard to see the ribbing on the edge, but I'll bring it to Knit Nite for oohs and aahs!!
Next project is "In the Pink" which I will work on in solitude in the hotel in Wichita this week-end!!!

On the VERGE
I finished this shawl before going to the Lake yesterday. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the pattern. So fast, and love the "built-in" fringe.
Verge
I bought this pattern at the Twist yarn shop in Wichita, KS. This is also where I got the awesome Elizabeth Zimmermann book!!!
