Not very much has changed in the last week. I’ve been busy and haven’t worked on my project very much. Also, I’m getting to the wider parts now, so progress is very slow. I think I have well over a hundred live stitches by now. I add 2-4 stitches on each row and I’ve done lots of rows. I’m still on my second ball of yarn though, so I still have a lot of work before I’m done. I’d really like to be done this fall/winter so I don’t have to wait till next year to wear it.
Right now the middle of the shawl is about 12 inches long and it needs to be about 16 before I can add on the second colour. I’m wondering if I will end up with extra yarn at the end. If so I think I will make a pair of mitts for my dad for Christmas. They should be nice and warm in wool and with the thick yarn, I think it will come together quickly.
