Wool & Words

Or lost or stolen or anything. Actually, it just needs new batteries, but I haven't yet been able to convince myself to go on a hunt throughout the house for them. So I'll try to write some images for you of my current knitting.

First the Wool Peddler's Shawl.

Picture a deep red, tinged with flecks of black, which give it a sooty, sultry appearance. A plush garter stitched center, with a hint of the lacy border beginning to peek out. Heavenly.

Then there's the Baby Blanket. Cute, perky garter squares in a cool, soothing light blue--all completed and neatly stacked, waiting for their more intricately patterned bretheren.

A sock of blue and grey, evoking many a thought of the Old South, even though the tweedy texture of the yarn doesn't attempt to bring those old dogs out on the hunt. Very small needles, the kind that one is cautious with in Crowded Spaces, lest one inadvertently start a mini-conflict.

Yep. That's what you'd see if I'd get off my fat ass and take some photos. Maybe tonight.

Harry Potter Update:

I'm on pg. 50?--I'll be finishing this evening for sure!
