Well, here’s the finished Coin Lace and Cable Wrap, Project 1 of the Knit a Mile from Stash commitment. I gave it to Andrea. It's cozy warm, and v-e-r-y long ... here she is wearing it, looking a little what ... sassy? haughty? smug?

I have 125 yards left to successfully complete The Challenge. I’m improvising some wrist warmers using partial skeins from my stash. First attempt wasn’t quite right so I tore that out last night. Net accomplishment this week toward completion of that last 125 yards: 0 … but a willingness to give it another go.

(Actually, that sort of sums up my week!)

Yea, last night I finished the shawl I did as the first part of the Knit a Mile Challenge. This project used up 1635 yards from my stash. I'll post a photo once the blocking is done. In the meantime, l love this video ... it pretty much sums up how it was feeling toward the end of it!

No knitting for me today. I need a break. I'm going to bake bread and maybe give myself a pedicure!
