Here I Go Again

The Blankie is on hold.  We all knew it was just too good to last anyway.

Now I'm working on this shawl  for Daughter-Type.  I have thoughts of giving it to her for Christmas, but I'm not sure which year that will be, lol.  I'm intrigued by the construction.  It starts off by casing just one stitch and doing a yarn over increase at the right edge every other row making the triangle you see in the picture.  The decreases are done in a similar manner.  Then you turn the work, and pick up all those yarn overs to start the lace pattern.  If I wasn't so caught up in WoW right now, I'd have that triangle and all the pick up stitches going, but I gotta be me, right?

I'll post a picture once I have something more exciting than the garter stitch triangle going.

I tend to go in cycles. I think a lot of folks do as well, and think that's a good thing. So you play when you're able and have the desire. There's just so much to do with this expansion that sometimes it's overwhelming. I have battle pets to level and after 90 there's all those reps to build. So much to do, so little time!

And then there's knitting. Woo hooo!!

I know. I wish I didn't have to sleep. I could get so much more done!
