Clapotis!

The Clapotis shawl is done and blocked using my blocking wires for the first time. (This is the one done from the recycled sweater.) While it was on the wires and pinned out it was approximately 60" by, oh, say, 21". I'll have to measure it again after it relaxes. We'll see. I'll also have to get a photo of it being worn, but for now, here it is!

It's Walrus Time

I can put the Walrus pictures up now that E. has her gift. So here they are:

Walrus5

Walrus6

Applause to A. for making the bucket (bukkit?) and fish, without which no walrus would be complete!

As usual, I've put more details on Ravelry.

Fingerless Mittens

Of late, I've been starting new projects. Not finishing them, mind you. Just starting them. I've decided that's OK. Now, to my surprise, I've both started and finished one! Behold, fingerless mittens (from this pattern: Basic Fingerless Mitts).

They don't look like anything when nobody's wearing them:Mitts1

But they look like this when they're on:

I'm pleased with them. As usual, the details are on Ravelry.
