Todays’ Table – Stole and Shawl

I finally finished my fox stole!

Isn’t it wonderful?!? So I’ve moved on to a new circular shawl. Apparently all is not right with the world unless I’m working on a giant piece of lace.

As I so often do, I began on double pointed needles until I had enough fabric to stretch over a circular needle.

The silk I am using was a very generous birthday gift from a good friend, and the shawl pattern is one I am test knitting for the designer. I can’t wait to show it to you when it’s finished! But there’s still a way to go yet, and as with all circular shawls, with each row I complete, the more stitches there are in the next row! So this may take some time!

While you’re waiting, here’s a picture of my spectators.

I bet you didn’t know knitting was a spectator sport!
