Chaos

12409d

Not much chaos here. We're having a pretty low-key Christmas present-wise. My kids received a lot of gifts during our Thanksgiving trip. This shawl was started and finished during our trip. I'm not sure how I would look using a circular shawl ;-), so I'll probably use this as a lap blanket. The pattern was easy to follow and easy to knit. It was a great project to knit during a road trip.

Pattern: Order to Chaos by Wendy Johnson
Yarn: Dream in Color Smooshy in Black Parade (3.5 skeins)
Needle: size 5 Knit Picks Options

Right now, I'm working on another shawl with my last skein of Wollmeise lace yarn. We didn't get the huge snow storm like east of here, but we have around 6 inches of snow. Pictures to come...

What a beautiful shawl! I love the smokey black color and the intricate design. I was wondering if you were snowed in this weekend! Can't wait to see snow pics! Stay warm and enjoy your day!
