I am working on the Galvaston Shawl when it gets slow at work. I had started this once before, but wasn't happy with how it was looking, so I ripped and started again with the old stand by wool (my Thrift shop speacial). It is looking pretty OK. I posted Clue 1, and now I'm almost done with Clue 2. I should be able to post a pic by Saturday.
I haven't given up on the mittens yet, I am just thinking about the technique needed. I had started them the other day with a braided cast-on, but wasn't happy with how that was working. I know it has something to do with my technique of knitting with the 2 colors together. I strated it again with more stitches to try and make it bigger, but still wasn't happy. I've casted on a third time, and there it sits. I am contemplating wether I really want the multi-colored cuff as I invisioned, or just the one color.......hmmmm. Thinking. I have plenty to keep busy with for now anyway, with the 2 shawls I am currently working on. I haven't even started the Mystery Stole. I want to jump in, but hesitate while I work on the shawls. The moderator is posting a larger clue today (clue 4), to last the 2 weeks until the 5th clue comes out. As Harry Potter comes out tomorrow, she wanted to give everyone a little extra time to read the book and get caught up alittle beofe proceeding. I want to take advantage of this time to jump start the stole....I just need to figure out what yarn to use.
So much to do, so little time.
