WIP Tuesday!

I'm feeling the pull to the Basket of Shame and I started working again on a shawl I fell madly in love with when I first began it last year....
Diamond Fantasy shawl, this time knit in Shaffer Andrea in the colorway Renata Tiebaldi - such amazing tones in this silk - it's thread, not yarn.

I'm working slowly, but in the past two nights have managed to knit through an entire repeat of the pattern...
and she's managed to ignore me, right along with it!

I wish you wouldn't call it "Basket of Shame." There's nothing wrong with letting projects sleep a little--they need the rest just like all of us.

I wonder if the knitting and the ignoring have any common connection? hmm?

That is one gorgeous shawl.

That was one of the nicest, most fun knitting projects I've ever done, that Diamond Fantasy shawl. I made it for my mom a few years ago. Yours is GORGEOUS! Wow. I may have to cast on another one of these days. Really lovely, and you have a lot done on it!

Namaste

I honor the place in you,

which is of love, truth, light, and peace.

When you are centered in that place in you,

and I am centered in that place in me,

we are one.
