Completing Projects - Vogue 2014 Magazine Checks Wrap

I started this shawl and ripped it out several times. I finally was able to get the squares lined up. The yarn is dyed so it forms squares and you have to have your gauge just right for the squares to fall in place. You'll notice on my sample there are strands hanging where the new square patterns begin. You leave half of the yarn color from your last square pattern and half of the yarn color from your new square pattern hanging. This is how you change patters. This will get woven in later. 

Prism Yarn - A Merino - Cashmere - Silk Blend. 

This shawl takes 7 skeins 170 yds. The color is Sage. 

Lazy Days of Summer Shawl Knitalong with Artyarns

Well I have added a new project to my long list.  I tried very hard to resist the sequin, beaded silk yarn from Artyarns but I couldn't.  You can see the shawl on Ravelry.  This is a knitalong that starts on April 10th.  I have never participated in one online before but I'll give it a chance.  I used my free time today to wind my yarn.  I took a page from my BKF Kate and used my knees to wind the yarn.  

If anyone has participated in an online knit along let me know.

Finished Yoga Socks.

I happy I finally finished my Yoga Socks.  I made a lot of changes which I mentioned in my previous post.  I will make another pair eventually but I will try a different pattern and yarn.  Now on to complete a couple of unfinished projects.
