My Stained Glass Window Tiles are coming along nicely. I have 12 (actually almost 13) completed tiles so far, and I like them all. It is such a cheerful explosion of colour.
I can’t get enough of knitting these little tiles. Which is probably a good thing, because I still need to make a LOT more in order for this to turn into a reasonably sized afghan.
Unless I run out of yarn, I think this will be my travel project for this weekend. Natalie Servant and I are going to the Knitters Frolic in Toronto on Saturday. The plan is to drive down on Friday and return on Sunday. I’m really looking forward to going, and meeting lots of people – including the fabulous Hasmi of Rocky Mountain Dyeworks. Two of the patterns in my upcoming book – Shaping Shawls – are knit with her yarn. And we have a wonderful project planned for the fall. I’ll be helping her set up for the show, and will get to play with all her yarn up close.
I’m also planning on starting (or rather, restarting) another shawl in Orihime from Spirit-Trail Fiberworks. My original plan just didn’t work out to my satisfaction, so back to the drawing board it is. With any luck, I’ll be able to bring this on the trip as well. Surely you don’t expect me to go to Toronto with only one project in my bag?
If anyone will be at the Knitters Frolic this Saturday – give me a shout. I’d love to meet up somewhere.
