Not On the Agenda...
When Catharina decided to misbehave...and then my needles for Hidcote were not in stock and may take till NEXT weekend to arrive...Well, what's a gal to do, but cast on something new!
And you know, a relaxing knit, in a yarn I love, a pattern that's simple and a product that's warm and comforting - well...what could be better? Yes, it's from stash (Latvian Lavender Peace Fleece from KarY, the pattern was one I've done twice before for comfort shawls donated to those in need (The Lacy Prairie Shawl from Folk Shawls), I had the Addi Naturas for this...and I need a WARM shawl for the in-between weather we're having that's supposedly "winter!" (um...yes it was 62 today is 56 right now, and more of the same, tho' with drizzle, tomorrow...)
And oh! This is a TWEED yarn, too, so while it's not what I'd planned to do for the KAL, it suffices (along with the two hats I knit in 2006 in Moscow Magic Pink PF!).
I still have my Sockret Pal socks OTN, and carry those around when I need something super simple and portable...

nothing like casting on a new project is there?
That's really pretty -- and you've done so much already! Maybe you'll finish it by the time your needles arrive. ;)
I can't wait to see more pictures; so pretty!
It is truly lovely. I've been inspired. : )
I never got around to see what the pretty purple knitting was that you were working on last week. It really is quite lovely.
I've decided that until the boys get much older (like go away to college), lace is off my list. They just can't stop talking to me long enough for me to concentrate.

Pretty!
