I’m a Rockin’ Girl Blogger!
\n

\"rockingirlblogger.jpg\"<\/center>
\nI got nominated twice! Once by Sue<\/a>, and again by Natalie<\/a>.
\nI rock!
\nSomeone please tell Em that.
\nNow I’m supposed to nominate five other Rockin’ Girl Bloggers, but I’m finding it difficult. I have 307 feeds in my bloglines. How am I supposed to narrow it down to 5?!? I’m still thinking about it.
\nBut I finished something while I was thinking about it!
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nThe baby cardi is done, and I even whipped up a little hat to match.
\nI finished the cardi on Monday night, then yesterday Em and I headed to the button factory<\/a> to begin the button saga. This colour was hard to match. I found some cute little buttons with kitties on them, and cute little flowers, but they were the wrong shade of pink, or too large for the cardi.
\nSo I wimped out and went plain.
\nThe shawl continues. Many times in the past weeks I’ve sworn I’ll never make another Shetland Shawl after this one.
\nSo I’m not quite sure how this got ordered and landed in my mailbox.

\nThe Cameron Shawl from Heirloom Knitting<\/a>. Here’s a better look.

\nMore evidence that I have no<\/em> willpower.
\nI like the construction of this one a lot better than I like the one ‘m working on now. This one has you work the centre square first, then pick up all the stitches around the square and work outwards. You can work each side separately, then seam them if you like, but I’m not a fan of seaming or grafting.
\nThe pattern was a little pricey, about $AU35 shipped, but it’s gorgeous.
\nAnd included were some yarn samples, and a postcard.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nAnd on the back of the sample card is a handy chart key, and Sharon herself wrote me a note on the postcard.

\nLittle extras are the key to my heart. And my bank balance. (Or lack thereof \ud83d\ude09
\nStartitis is biting. I want to start this shawl, and I don’t even have the yarn for it. Yet.
\nI also printed out the first clue for Mystery Stole 3, and I’m itching to start that, too. But if I do, I know the Shetland Shawl won’t get done.
\nOh the angst!
\nMy art director was on hand for all photo sessions.

\nShe gets paid in craisins. And yoghurt drops. And cuddles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
