Pi shawl started in Rowanspun 4 ply on 4.5mm needles. There is something very soothing about this pattern and I am enjoying it already. I had to borrow Maggie's needles last night at Knitting Group in order to start it. As it grows, I will be able to put it on a circular needle and return them to her.She is one of those organised people who has all her double pointed needles in a box. Need I add that I am not? I have at least 2 sets of 4.5's somewhere.
There has been some hilarity at group recently regarding old patterns which have been bought for recycling to other members. The pictures are so posed compared to the classy Rowan shoots we see now.Still, the basic shapes are fine for adaptation to modern styles.Amazingly Julie found a doll pattern she had been looking for so she was happy.
Sue has been buying sock wool again. Clearly she has none in her stash! However, no justification is needed amongst friends.
Lots of laughs last night about nothing in particular - that's what it's all about. The guys at the pub where we meet have finally stopped looking at us as though we're crazy!
