I finished the prayer shawl a couple nights ago. I got it delivered today after gathering up enough nerve. I always second guess myself when it comes to something like this. I decide to make it, am excited, finish and then when it's time to deliver it I wonder if it really is the right thing to do or if I'm out of bounds. But I prayed specifically for this person and her family and it just wouldn't do to keep the shawl or give it to someone else so I finally convince myself to deliver it. And it was fine.
I started on mitten liners for my mittens I did this winter. They aren't warm enough when it's windy and below zero temperatures so I'm making these liners to go inside the mittens. I'm doing them a size smaller and without the ribbed cuff. If they don't stay in place or if it's hard to get my hand inside, I'll tack them to the mittens along the bottom edge. They might "knit" themselves together if I put the liners inside the mittens and then wash them. They seem like they will be a fast knit without the ribbing to mess around with.We are traveling to visit 2nd DS and DDIL. It'll be so fun to see them. The least fun will be the 10 hour drive there and another 10 on the way back. A couple people have asked if we weren't flying....now that is an option we hadn't considered....
