Boulder 3S shawl

This one was blocked in early September, but I never got pictures.

Great mindless knitting.  I knit in the car, in class, at soccer games and while on break at work.

This is really cute with the self striping yarn.

The little picot edging added some pizazz, don't you think?

I really like the picot edging.

Back on the Horse

Well, that was a dandy break, wasn't it?  Summer just galloped away...

I'll just climb back on this horse and ride 'er into the fall.

Cooler temps today (it's been in the 90s for a solid week) made me feel like playing with fiber again.

I had these shawls to block.

Well, Color Affection turned out to be 80 inches wide.  Where the heck do you block something of that size?

On the clothes line, of course. It worked surprisingly well. 

(Please ignore the towels.)

Boulder 3S shawl

I started this one while taking an intensive weekend seminar in Boulder Colorado this summer.  It was great mindless knitting.

Finished object photos to come this week.

Happy Fall to everyone in the Midwest!

It is way more fun to knit than it is to block...

Class Knitting

I drove to Colorado to stay with Ben and Bekky while I take a nursing informatics class in Boulder.

Yup, drove to Colorado to sit in a windowless conference room for 18 hours.

It was an excellent class, but my days of being attentive during extended lectures are long gone. I made it through half of the first day before I started to nod off.

   

However, I am able to be attentive (by which I mean stay awake) when my hands are busy.

  

This led to knitting.  

(Imagine that.)

Nice garter stitch knitting that doesn't require attention. 

I probably made more eye contact with the instructors than anyone else in the room.
