I was blog surfing yesterday and found a neat knitalong called “Lacevember.” I decided to join since I’m working on the Flowing River shawl anyway and I figured it would be good motivation to actually finish something. They posed this question to the members of the knitalong:
What are your ideal lace making conditions?

My ideal lace making conditions would be sitting in a comfy recliner under a good lamp, with several good movies, lots of chocolate and plenty of Diet Coke (with lime of course). I love to knit while I watch movies. Also, documentaries on the history channel are good for knitting.

So since I frogged the whole Flowing River on Saturday and re-cast on again last night, I’m now on row 93. I’m in the 3rd chart (of 5) and it ends on row 116. I think that’s pretty good progress. I have (for the first time ever) put in lifelines at the end of each chart as I go so that if I mess up again at least I won’t have to frog the whole thing.

Well, back to my knitting (and packing for the weekend and homework, etc etc etc)
