Mystic Light

Just a quick update

I finally got off the ground on the Mystic Light mystery shawl knitalong. Here is the gauge swatch.

It took me a while and even though I was on needle size 7 I still did not get the four inch gauge swatch specified. I liked the way my swatch blocked out and feels, though, so I am sticking with it. The yarn is Dream in Color Smooshy and the color is Deep Seaflower. I love it. Here is what I got so far.

That's only about a third of the first clue. I won't be able to finish clue 1 before clue 2 comes out today! I have another project to finish.

A birthday dress for my granddaughter Ingrid. I'd better finish that today, because I am going to Texas to her birthday party tomorrow! I am almost done anyway, just to seam up and finish the neck and armhole picot edging.

Just a quickie update today. Time to get back to work. Why does work have to interfere with kniting?
