Big pile of swatches, take 2.
I’m always working on some project or another, which means I often have FOs and new designs to share. You can see all my FOs … here … and all my designs … here.
The swatches for Shawl Geometry II are done, blocked and photographed. Whoo!
I focused Shawl Geometry on common shawls shapes, the shapes we’ve all seen before, and are somewhat familiar with. Shawl Geometry II focuses on less common shapes, some bias rectangles and triangles, a whole series of wedge crescents (my favorite shape), plus a bunch of other squares, rectangles, triangles, and circle variations.
You can learn more about Shawl Geometry here, and here.

Three yays for fabulous, easy knitting.
I’m always working on some project or another, and most weeks I talk about what I’m working on Wednesdays as part of Tami’s WIP Wednesday project. You can see past WIP Wednesdays … right this way.
I started a new shawl, and it’s not even my pattern. Which means I don’t really need to think about what I’m doing, or right down any pattern instructions. Because the pattern’s easy, and already written, and written beautifully, so all I need to do is follow the stinking thing, and not mess it up. Which has been going marvelously (except for that bit where I forgot to keep track of what I was doing, and royally screwed it up, and then had to rip and reknit this morning, oops) apart from that it’s been fabulous. yay!
And on US 7 needles and worsted weight yarn, it’s a super speedy knit. yay!
The pattern isn’t out yet, because this is a sample knit for a friend, but I’ll be sure to let you know when it is out. Because it makes for fantastic knitting. yay!

Poor shawl. It’s sat in it’s project bag, and ridden around in my purse all week, but it hasn’t been worked on.
It didn’t even want to come out to take a photo.
