Wednesday Friday Mashup

It’s not Wednesday or Friday, but I have an FO/WIP mashup.

I’m busy working on swatches for the planned Shawl Geometry II. A bunch of the swatches are done, but there are still some more to go.

The current plan is to have Shawl Geometry II focus on subtracting from and dividing basic shapes to get new shapes, and then have a Shawl Geometry III that focuses on adding onto the basics. But that plan might change/get added to. Because Shawl Geometry II & III certainly weren’t in the original game plan.

Here’s the info about Shawl Geometry.

So instead of an FO tomorrow I think I’ll be talking about either why I knit, or the mess that comes from being a maker and trying to distinguish the “what I am” from the “what I do.”

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.

 

It’s rainy, cold, and very much not like the end of May outside.

But I have a shawl that looks a little like a sea anemone sitting on my desk, and tea that makes the whole room smell like cinnamon.

So I guess it’s not too bad.

It’s Here!

and I’m dancing around my apartment!

Shawl Geometry cover-large

It’s the ebook for the Shawl Geometry blog series.

You can learn more about the ebook, and buy it over here.

But why should I buy the ebook when I could just follow the blog?

A couple reasons actually.

  1. immediacy: you get the FULL Shawl Geometry series. Immediately.        The blog series is scheduled to finish the last week of July. When you buy the ebook you get it all right now.
  2. convenience: you can access it offline. Print pages to stick in your knitting bag, or scribble notes all over.
  3. ease: you don’t have to dig through tons of blog posts to find the shape you’re looking for. In the ebook they’re all in one place, right at your finger tips.

and for $23 it’s WAY easier than reinventing the wheel.
