First Over the Finish Line

I finally finished one of my projects that has been going for months. On Saturday, I tucked the ends in on the throw. It is kind of stretchy, so the dimensions are rough. It is about 48 inches wide by 60 inches long. This works as a throw for me. Now is gracing the love seat in the front room. I will have to admit the pattern shows more from across the room than up close. I sure everyone will remind me that this is what I get for using a bulky, slightly boucle yarn.

It has been inspected by Freya and not found to be highly desirable. One of the bonuses of acrylic, is that my cats don't want to roll in it. She did smack it before sniffing it. This is part of the standard inspection method.

Guess I might as well roll out the progress report on everything else.

- Philosopher's Wool sweater has about 2 inches of body tube left to go.
- Angel wing lace socks are still on the first sock but about half way through the foot.
- Oregon shawl has about 65 rows of border left followed by the bind-off border
- shrug is really close to starting the second skein which by definition is really close to half done.

The urge for a quick 6 hour project is growing. So, I signed up for the Spring Surprise Shawl. Of course, I plan to do my usual and wait for the whole pattern before starting.
