Much knitting has been accomplished of late, but unfortunately nothing photogenic.
Last week, I went to my first knit night at my new LYS. And it was awesome. Everyone there was super-friendly, and I got to hear all about the various projects and events they had going. They also admired the swallowtail-in-progress, even though it's still extremely blobby. The store owner told me on the way out that "your cobweb thing is beautiful!" I laughed, but that's just about right.
The swallowtail is coming along--I'm almost done with the first edge chart and hope to finish it this week. Here, have a blob picture:
Look, you can see the nupps!
I've never made anything with nupps before; they're pretty easy. (Of course, I'm a very loose knitter . . . they'd be fiendishly difficult for a tight knitter, I think.)
In other news, the pattern for the Papyrus shawl is (finally) in the hands of the test knitters. Are you happy now?!
