Wave and Shell Shawl



On the needles right now I have a Cotton Wave and Shell pattern Shawl. I love the one done in the cotton ribbon yarn but couldn't find any locally that I liked so I am using peaches and cream worsted wt cotton in faded denim . This is a very easy pattern and I have it memorized so it makes for good knitting on the go.

Itty Bitty Hats



Itty Bitty Hats . Here is a quick one I just knitted up for a friend who is a new grandmother. I used cotton yarn and DMC cotton doubled to do the flowers. I enjoyed the process minus all the hand sewing .

Clapotis




Funny how colors change!!! I found the perfect acrylic yarn( no yarn snobs comments). I fell in love with all the colors. But as I knitted , and I knitted I fell out of love with the colors. I loved the skeins but not the actual pooling of color in my finished project. I ended up giving my beautiful shawl to my sister. My sister loved it and was a great comfort shawl for her since she recently had surgery. So I guess you could say I win either way!!! Here are some pics .

I do plan to another Clapotis but in a nicer yarn.
