Finished!!!


I finshed my mom's shawl although I had to leave off one repeat and I couldn't quite figure out the bind off so I did a stretchy bind off. I gave it to her for her birthday. She just loves it.
I can work again on Queen Anne's Lace now and am almost done with chart 2. Will be taking another pic then. I am in the process of designing another bookmark for the monthly contest at Monthly Threads KAL-CAL.
I just couldn't pass a sale on baby alpaca lace weight at WEBS an it still looks like they have some left.
Our LYS had their 4th anniversary May 29th with Bev Galaskas and her book "Felted Knits". It was a great time and bought more lace weight along with a cute little kit to make a knitted hedgehog (purple of course).
I need to cut back on my swaps since I didn't realize that I had signed up for three now. No more swaps for a while anyway after these.
In other news: I applied for a loan to buy a mobile home in the park that my mom lives in. Will have to go in to the bank to find out if I was approved and if not there is one other route that can be taken. We'll see
