Twink's words of wisdom

Notice anything different? No? Well the percentage went up a teensy bit on the shawl over there on the sidebar. I got it out and worked several rows last night. I love the color, the feel, and the look of this thing, but the yarn is a royal P.I.T.A. to knit with. It's full of little mohair loops that catch on the tip of your needle. Someday I will finish this thing. Some. Day.

In the mean time I have two simple FOs to show. First, the Heart Lace Dishcloth. See where I purled 3 instead of knit 3? Oh well! At least I didn't screw up the lace.

And second, a simple ribbed hat. I used a Patons Classic Merino variegated colorway and the colors spiral all the way up the hat. Cool!
I made this one a size larger than normal and knit it an extra 2 1/2" long so I could roll up the brim. And I like it! I haven't been doing much knitting lately. Summers are always so busy for us.
