Holiday Gifts
I've been working away for over 8 months on this year's holiday gifts. The Gift o' the Year is a a hand-crocheted shawl. I've been experimenting with multi-colored yarns, sock yarns, worsted weight yarns and more. I've made Seraphina Shawls, Granny Triangle Shawls and Rectangular Shawls. I'm kinda' shawled-out.
HOWEVER, I'm smitten with the combo of any striping Noro yarn and this granny triangle shawl (which is really a scarf pattern - Ravelry link). I can't stop making them! I'm working on another one right now! They're fast and gorgeous (just like I USED to be in the OLD days)! (rimshot).
Thanks to my tall co-worker, Courtney for being America's Next Top Shawl Model!

I feel fortunate if I knit one gift! You are so prolific. One of my friends knit me a little sweater for my birthday. It takes me so long to knit anything like that that I cannot possibly give them away! I belong to Selfish Knitters on Ravelry.
I love every one your Noro crochet shawls I see, but the way the stripes fell in this one might be my favorite. Which Noro yarn are you using?
You know I am loving the triangle shawl right now.
Love those colors!
The triangle shawl is fab! It has such a nice drape and the colors - Wow!!!
Aw, heelllllll... I love you're craftiness (yes, you *are* a god!), but dude - that rimshot is the BOMB. I need to put that on my computer so I can use it ALL. THE. TIME.
.... still laughing...
I'm loving all those colors...pretty and very retro!
