full circle

The September Circle shawlette is finished! Just in time for the return of the rain.

This project was quick and easy. I would've liked to've made it a bit larger by way of circumference, but it'll be very cozy and comfy as it is...my only mod was to add a couple of repeats to reach approx 43 inches in circumference (gauge matters!) and knit until I used up the skein.

This was my first foray into MadTosh Light...I loved it!!

This yarn is so chameleon-like. Depending on the light, its color-character changes. I love that!

Kind of like Portland weather! Hah!

I hope you all are having a great week so far!!

It's so pretty - the color is so warm and glowing. I hope you and yours had a wonderful Thanksgiving. It was a nice time to spend with the family - even with the cold and snow that we had.

Happy Knitting.

Wow, that is gorgeous with all of the little blue bits. Every time I see this pattern knit up, it looks totally different, and I start brainstorming about yarn I could use for my own version :)
