One more down...

The Blue Alpaca Shawl is blocking. I still haven't found the charger for the camera battery (I haven't looked as hard as I could have)..so there are no photos.

I'm happy, but not over the top, with the final results. It's not as big as I had hoped, nor is it as square. I'll try it on someone smaller than me to see how it looks - not everyone wants a huge shawl. The border I chose looks great with the funky centre pattern.

I'm not too sure how I'll proceed - do I just adjust the pattern and hope for the best, or should I knit another sample?

This designing thing isn't as easy as I'd thought.


On another front, I've committed to running the Resolution Run on December 31st. It's a 5K run...and I don't run yet. I'm following the couch to 5K plan from cool running. This week's it's 60 seconds of running and 90 seconds of walking. I'm telling as many people as possible to keep me accountable.

My computer is very very slow right now....so I'll leave you with that. I should probably look for the charger anyway..
