a sweater and a shawl

I’m finally whittling away at my list of knitting projects. (Although I’ve got quite the list of new things piling up in my mind – partially thanks to the shipment of books we just got in the store.)

I finally finished this sweater I started in February for my friend Brooke, who is due next month.

raglan baby sweater

The yarn is Rowan All Seasons Cotton and the pattern is a Knitting Pure and Simple pattern (#241) that is wonderfully easy.

I also finished a shawl I’ve been working on for my mom’s birthday… March 17. Oops. I’ve concluded that shawls are impossible to photograph, so here is a disappointing photo of it. Really it’s fresh and modern and has an amazing drape. I’ve got some yarn to make one for myself too.

Linen Print shawl

The yarn is Rowan Linen Print – 7 balls
Pattern is from the store, it’s called the Purl Shawl. Yep, all purling baybee!

Next on my list is finalizing a pattern for a class I’m teaching on Saturday and finishing up a baby sweater pattern that I’m teaching in a few weeks. What a busy life I lead…

    Very cute! I love knitting with the All Season’s Cotton. It comes out looking so professional and neat. I can’t believe how much you’ve finished lately!

    I love the color on that sweater! I can’t wait until Anna has hair and can wear blue without being called “an adorable little boy”!

    I love that sweater. I wish I could knit on more than just straight needles.
