This has been the theme of the week here! I am moving along as quickly as I can with my test knit and I can now tell you (I think) that it is for the mystery shawl KAL from Yarn addict so if you fancy joining in that would be fab. You need 800m of lace weight (sparkles are optional) and some beads for the edging. I also bought myself a chiaogoo lace needle to try as I have heard they are amazing (plus I didn't have a spare needle). The pattern for me has been great so far and I am almost at the edging but for the KAL they are only on clue 1 this week.
Also I can spill the beans that our
Yarn dyeing friend has been having a go at some fluff for spinning and she sent me some pink sparkly to have a go with!
It is, as always, a fab colour and really lovely to spin. I am hoping that I am spinning fine enough to get a
little lace shawl but will keep you posted.
Finally here is a rather rubbish picture of the firmaments shawl - I have too many stitches on the needle to stretch it out but I am sure you can get the gist of it? The little blue bits are where Dee has marked the start of the rounds and I wanted to leave them in until the end.
That all I have this week but hopefully I will have more to show you once my mystery sparkles is off the needles. Take care of yourselves this week, Sxx

You are one busy lady!So many things on the go.i have totally lost my mojo at the moment and can't settle to anything.I hope it comes back soon.
Ooh that spinning is good! I like! I drum carded some of what's I did at guild the other day but I have some of that pink left. Let me know if you run out and I'll card you up some more.
I love the mystery shawl but I really can't commit myself to anything else at the moment - you know how I am!
