This has been on the go with me for some time now. I don't get much non-design knitting now days, but when I do, it's lace.

Pattern is WendyKnits Summer Mystery Shawl 2013 KAL.

Stitches 2013

Another year, another Stitches. Specifically another Stitches Midwest.

Stitches2013-haul

The haul that I brought home is sooooo full of goodies, that it just makes me smile. I did notice that I heavy on the Green this year and how can you not fall in love with these precious gems.

Major highlights: 6 skeins of Madelinetosh Pashmina in the Forestry colorway from the Webs booth, 8 skeins of Glenfiddich Wool in the Spruce Heather colorway, Another Crafty Girl, Miss Babs, 2 lace silky baby camel skeins from Cephalopod Yarns, buttons, beads, blocking mats, signature needle, Cloud Lover fiber, 10 skeins of Silky Wool in brown and Erin Lane bags.

 I'm having such a great time playing with all my goodies. What a great weekend, full of friends, fiber and food.

Spoiler: Clue 1 Synergy MKAL

Clue 1 was released Thursday and it's so exciting to see the colors everyone is working with. Check out the fun in the Synergy MKAL - Clue 1 Spoiler Thread!

I've also decided to join along. My desire was to have two color combos showcased in the final release of the pattern and what better why to the join along with everyone else!

I didn't divide my yarn, so this might be an utter disaster! Yet so far so good!

Stay tuned for Clue 2 - released this coming Thursday, August 8th!
