#knit things

1 1/2 more pattern repeats until I'm done with this. Then the six row garter border. I'm wondering if I should do a lacy bit in the last row and do a lacy cast off. I really hope it fits ok when it's off the needles, since this pattern is fitted.

The shawl body is done. Now for the lace border, and then I'll decide if I'll do a top border. I'm loving hoe it's coming out until now.

Off the needles, on the blocking board. Still don't know how the hell people manage to get the edges straight while pinning.

This is hot off the needles and still needs to be washed and blocked a little but not only did I knit it myself entirely, I also spun the yarn myself.

I am....Not the cleverest knitter around. Realised the edge was not looking like the picture and realised this pattern called for purlwise yarn overs instead of the knitwise I've been doing. Sigh. Oh well, around a bit over my pointer finger I changed it and you can see how much better it looks.

I hate using double points. I’m paranoid about laddering.
