I miss coming here, but school is keeping me busy and I was silly enough to enroll for summer as well, so there has been little time to craft. But I'm not quite ready to give up the blog, so it'll probably straggle along until I graduate. I managed to squeeze in some knitting a few months ago. There have been many lovely textured shawls on ravelry and the gorgeous skein of Malabrigo sock yarn I got for my birthday didn't want to be socks. It's more of a kerchief than a shawl, but that works; it's lightweight and soft and great for when it's just a bit chilly.
Pattern: textured shawl recipe by orlane, available
hereYarn: 1 skein of Malabrigo sock yarn in eggplant
Needles: US 5
Mods: The number of rows had to be adjusted due to the smaller gauge: I knit 4x 26 rows alternating stockinette and textured pattern, 22 rows of stockinette, 6 rows of textured, ending with 19 rows of garter st.
Right now I'm working on a sewn bag, all that's left is the zipper and the lining.

Phew, sounds like you're busy! No worries about infrequent posts, that's what Bloglines is for.
That said, it's always great to hear from you, and that kerchief is so beautiful. The colour has so much pearly depth.
It's beautiful! I want to knit one!
It's gorgeous...and I can only imagine the softness! :)
I love that color! Is it purple, black, gray, navy? Ever-changing!
Thats a lovely scarf. Best wishes for the continued study. I need a break but am revising for exam at the moment. And I will probably end up signing on for the next module soon as well!
