Cruise Mysteries No Longer!

Here are the two fingerless mitten designs that I will be teaching on the Fantasy Fiber Arts Cruise to The Bahamas in July!

Each is a separate class, and each class will provide the pattern, chart, instructions, yarn and extras (beads, if needed, stitch markers, pins, post-it notes). Students will be able to choose their own colorways from the yarns and beads provided. All they'll have to bring are Size 3 needles (dpns or long circs, as desired).

There is room in both of these classes, and in fact, I think you can still sign up for the cruise itself... it's to The Bahamas, if you forgot....

I've booked my flight to Charleston, and I'm getting excited!

Forest Canopy Shawl, kinda sorta wordless

I started this shawl back in October. It's knit from the handspun Romney that Voracious Reader and I dyed with Marigolds. It turned out beautifully, though it's much smaller than I expected  it to be (blocked: 56" x 25"). I've knitted this shawl before, and though I found the posts, I didn't note at the time whether I worked extra repeats. I must have, because that shawl is much larger while being knit with yarn that is far more fine.  This one is too small to be an adult shawl, at least as a full-size shawl (it would be fine as a neck decoration), so I think maybe it'll go to VR.

Okay, that's enough words- the pictures tell the story.
