A few days ago I finally finished a shawl that I have been knitting for a few weeks. I enjoyed working on this piece because I so so so so love the
Noro Kureyon Sock yarn I used. If you don't know Noro, you should. It knits up in beautiful self-striping colorways, and it's always interesting because you don't really know exactly how your item will come out. I am donating this shawl to a silent auction for
Gina Gibney Dance in NYC. At their annual Gala this month they will be raising money for a domestic violence organization. Here's the shawl: (I used the
Multnomah pattern found on Ravelry)
You can see the true colors better in this closeup shot:
A couple of weeks ago I donated a different shawl to an animal shelter in NJ. It was not made from Noro, but it's nice nonetheless:
I love how you can see Willow peeking at me in this one:
I am leaving the shawls behind and moving on next to make a
Baby Surprise Jacket. It will be my first time knitting this classic pattern and I'll update my blog about my progress as I go along.
