NoBloPoMo

While all you out there were writing novels and posting every day, this blog suddenly turned into No Blog Post Month. It was unofficial, I didn’t mean to stop but work just ran away with me. I also didn’t do much knitting at all. But, that knitterly urge has come back, and I have finished something!

This something was very close to done anyway, when I picked it up a few days ago, but it is a start towards my goal of having no WIPs lagging over into the New Year. I don’t think I’ll make that, but we’ll see.

I finished…. a Fleece Artist Shoulder Wrap!

A simple pattern in a pretty yarn. The yarn is Silk Spun and is 100% silk, with a boucle-like texture.

The yarn came with a pattern on the label, and that is what I followed. I say ‘pattern’, but it is just a garter stitch triangle, the yarn is the thing.

Somehow, with the giant gap between when I started this (August!!) and when I finished (a few minutes ago!) I forgot that the increases were on both ends of each row, just not the begining. I remembered that part way through, and changed, so it has a bit of an interesting shape. That doesn’t really concern me though, as I will most likely always wear it like this anyway:

Well, I do have to run off to work for the rest of the day, but hopefully in a day or two I can show you my progress on the Millicents! These will be done before the New Year. That’s my new goal.

    Looks great! Good for this time of year, too. I still miss your podcast. Your dry wit was fun to listen to. KC
