mostly annoyed, instead of completely annoyed

I’m always working on some project or another, and most weeks I talk about what I’m working on Wednesdays as part of Tami’s WIP Wednesday project. You can see past WIP Wednesdays … right this way.

 

Only knit one or two rounds of progress in the past couple weeks, and haven’t touched this shawl in days.

But I’m playing with not being completely and totally annoyed by this. Just mostly annoyed.

Either way, it seems to be helping.

I managed to work on both shawls this week. wheeee!

With this shawl,

I’m Playing with

  • noticing
  • rest
  • pausing
  • taking breaks
  • paying attention
  • breath

But in all seriousness, you would think by this point, considering how many shawls I knit, I’d have figured out a better way to photograph them in their blobular state.

But apparently not…

Big pile of swatches, take 2.

I’m always working on some project or another, which means I often have FOs and new designs to share. You can see all my FOs … here … and all my designs … here.

 

The swatches for Shawl Geometry II are done, blocked and photographed. Whoo!

I focused Shawl Geometry on common shawls shapes, the shapes we’ve all seen before, and are somewhat familiar with. Shawl Geometry II focuses on less common shapes, some bias rectangles and triangles, a whole series of wedge crescents (my favorite shape), plus a bunch of other squares, rectangles, triangles, and circle variations.
