I haven’t been able to work on my shawl as much as I’d like to.  Sometimes I go days without picking it up, but most days I work on it for a little bit in the evening, after 8pm.  Unfortunately, some days by the time I put dogs out at 9pm and get them settled down, I’m ready to turn in.  Those days when I could get up at sunrise and still be wide awake late in the evening are long gone.

Here is my progress so far.  It will lay flatter and be a little larger when washed and gently blocked (no pinning needed).  It is almost the same length as the cushion its on, which is 30 inches and I still haven’t finished the first skein of yarn.  I was going for at least 60 inches long and 24 wide and from the looks of this, I’ll get the size I want.
