Ahh.. that's better

Look! Progress!!!I finished the final few rows on Frozen Leaves, and that baby is a-blockin'! I'll give more details in a proper FO post, but I knit this one in a DK, cotton/viscose/silk blend - perfect drape for a shawl.

And - today was an all-day meeting for my department at work. Fortunately, our department directors are just fine with me knitting through the meeting - one actually commented that having my hands busy probably helped me focus on the meeting - okay... we'll go with that.

So, I was able to whip along on the socks I started for Dave.I'd really like to have these done for Valentine's Day (this is just the first sock). It's really too bad, I don't have any more meetings scheduled before then!

  1. Lovely shawl! I wish I could knit at work. I did before and was told by the CEO that it may look to others that I am not working ...

  4. The shawl is gorgeous!!

    And I completely understand the mixed blessing of long meetings - I get so much more knitting done on busy meeting weeks :)

  6. I focus better when my hands are busy, too. But the kind of meetings I have don't allow for knitting...
    Love that shawl!
