Finish It Fall?

I had it in my head that I was going to work on the backlog of projects I'd let pile up over the summer. I had a bunch of projects that were close to completion when I flung them aside in favor of the sock contest. The shawls in particular cried out to be finished.

Springtime Bandit, in Malabrigo Silky Merino, waiting to be blocked, looking all manta-ray-ish.



I borrowed Yvonne's blocking tools: interlocking foam playmats like they use in daycares. Genius!




The completed shawl, hanging out on my neighbor's bushes (yes, they probably do think I am crazy).


And another shawl, The Simple Yet Effective Shawl using one ball of Noro Silk Garden Sock.


Great! I finished two projects! If only I hadn't cast on for three more this week...
