Knitting on Shawls
I am still finishing the shawl and coverlet. The crochet edging is taking longer than planned. But both look so beautiful.
I will be taking pictures today and downloading tomorrow. I am happy to be at the end. I will also have photos of the Blanket Coat and all the threads required for this project. Will also have the swatch for the arms in photo and the cast on to the needles for the sleeves.

Organizing Knitting Projects
I finally have the yarn for a New Project. All of the threads are new on the market. I am lucky to have Windsor Button Store.
It is the only place that the owners and staff really go out of their way to see that you have all the correct brands.
They order the yarn for you. It would be so much easier for the WBS to suggest a different 'in store' available yarn.
Even though I am altering the pattern to accommodate my problem with wool- Allergic!
It is a project of memories.
I also, got these great packages with roping that allows them to act as backpacks. I took all of my projects and dated them.
I have stored them in my project closet. This gives me a great deal more room to work.
I am having a great day in the finishing of both shawls.

Knitting Project Coat
I am still working on both shawls. Hope to post pictures later today. I have now most of the materials for my Blanket Coat.
Will have the Gray non-wool lining this Saturday. Have found the most wonderful fleece at $4.44 a yard. Has a great feel.
Will also use the Green soft napped Blanket for extra protection from the wool. May try and make this removable.
Have been looking at stocking patterns. Will be removing the Christmas Tree on Saturday. I will be sad to put it away.
I have truly enjoyed the Fiber Optics with the pre-lites (6 strands) ready to set up and turn on. Hoping the company will make a white one. I really do not like ornaments on this tree.
