We have had grey damp rainy weather for close to a week now. I'm just wondering....is the sun still out there? I'd love to know that someone has sunshine somewhere...

While I had the grandkids here I did vitually no knitting. Just a little bit on the Pansy sock. But the last couple days I've gotten back to the Upstairs Shawl. I've switched skeins yet again, hopefully for the last time, in an effort to control the pooling a little. The only positive thing is that it's pretty consistant and looks like it was planned that way. I just need to decide now how long to make it.
It's amazing to me how little the pooling shows in this picture. It's so obvious in real life. Only because I know where it is can I see it in this picture. I've decided not to sweat it. It is what it is and I'm not going to try to change it at this point. I've decided that I need to look at it as a positive rather than a negative. The color differences make for a more interesting looking shawl. That's my theory and I'm sticking to it!
