TGIF

This has been such a week, and not in a good way. There has been very little knitting going on, although I have made some progress on the baby jeans. So far, not much to see, though. So, as a distraction, look at this:

pink cables

What is it? It's my oldest WIP, a cabled pink mohair shawl from the Winter 2002 issue of Knitter's. I began it around Thanksgiving 2004 and, although I really like it (in spite of someone comparing the color to pepto-bismol), it's got to be quite chilly for me to work on it. I tend to be cold by nature, but this has been a warm South Texas winter, so I haven't made much progress. I'll finish it eventually, since it combines three of my favorite things - pink, cables, and mohair!

Despite my lack of knitting this week, I've still managed to read blogs,and I joined Team DPN for the Knitting Olympics. I'm not sure why I've become such a joiner - it must be the buttons!

And finally - I had much help with this post. Simon has been laying between me and the iBook and has twice managed to delete all or part of this post!

I don't think it looks like Pepto. It really is pretty.
