Seraphina Shawl Greenie in Progress

This is a lovely pattern - yes, it's crocheted and NOT knitted but I am a long-time crocheter, too. This pattern can be found here. If you're on Ravelry, look it up and you'll see all the wonderful shawls that have been and are being made. Just love the 'batwing' shaping.
Yarn: JoAnn's RainbowBoucle - green shades
Hook: N
No mods so far - pattern is very easy to work with. The skein of yarn is huge - no ends to weave in in the middle of work! I have put the yarn in a big clear plastic 'barrel' - like for kitchen storage - it keeps the yarn tangle-free (so far so good) and clean of cat hair and other stuff. The yarn is light and airy - which it puuurrrrrfect for a shawl. KC took a look but it wasn't interesting AND it was in my lap (which means he isn't) so he went to lay down and nap elsewhere.

Leavin' On A Jet Plane

Well, I thought I'd get a shot in here really quick. I'm off in the early am (dark:thirty) to visit my cousin in North Carolina. I really do hate flying, but it's the only way we (Mom and I) can get there! My cousin has promised a yarn shop visit - yippeee - and I'm looking forward to visiting a state I've never been in. I'm taking socks to knit in the airports and on the planes. I did finish all the socks I had planned to wear on the trip and will have pics up when I get back next week.

Quick pic:This is my Charlotte's Web Shawl - unblocked. I made it with Koigu and finished it in 10 days!

I better get to bed so I'll wake up!
