A process shot of the Chadwick Shawl. It is just, just, finished and in blocking. It took me a long time to knit this one, partly because the last rows were more than 300 stitches and 5 feet long before blocking. Once I figure out how to wrap it, I'll put up a photo. For once, I will try to put up a rare shot of me wearing a knit.
Another reason that this shawl took so long is that I got a virus for the holidays. I'm still feeling pretty bad, but going to work, anyway. I've been too sick to knit or even, really, read. For me, that is a terrible thing. I am definitely still sick. I've edited this post several times for typos.
So sorry to hear you've been ill. No fun any time of year.
ReplyDeleteThe shawl looks good and I'm waiting to see in on you. :)
I tend to try to avoid projects that require casting on lots and lots of stitches for looong pieces. I'm kind of lazy like that. For some reason, though, I don't mind starting at a small end and increasing to a longer finish. There are so many lovely shawls out there. I should get over my laziness. Maybe I'll try to work on that this year.
