Sorry I haven't been blogging lately. I just have been soo busy. I am working on my blanket made of squares and have eventually got them all joined together, doing some work for the Ni Machine Knitters Guild as I am now the secretary, decorating the hall, fixing the turquoise jacket I have blogged about earlier as I did not like the button band and handknitting a shawl for my boss who retires tomorrow. Here is the finished item. I hope she likes it.
It is the first shawl I have ever knit. I bought the wool in a sale while on holiday. It is Sirdar Duet and the pattern is from Knitting in no time by Melody Griffiths. Well, it took me some time - about 2 months although the book said 24 hrs. Thinking about it, this is probably about right as I only knit about 30 mins each night!
