I am currently working on two main projects with deadlines. They both need to be complete by October, 15, 2007. The first project is the beaded shawl and the second one is this Cobweb Lace Shetland Shawl. The pattern is Sharon Miller's Heirloom Knitting called "Rosebud Shetland Shawl". I am using a one ply Cobweb Yarn from Jamieson & Smith Shetland Wool Brokers in the color White and on a size 4 Skacel Turbo Lace needle. This is my first time using the new lace needles from Skacel and I love them. No slipping or dragging stitches. The points are just perfect for lace. They tell me they will be getting the zero sizes in after the first of the year, which I will need for some future projects. I am planning on making some other Ultralace patterns with some Grossamer CashSilk thread and another one with the Grossamer 100% silk thread. The silk thread and the Cashmere Silk both have a beautiful Sheen. I am excited about knitting with both of these beautiful threads.

This is my first time visiting your blog and I must say that the cobweb shawl is soooo eyecatching. I'll have to keep chacking back on its progress.
