Cassis Shawlette

dsc_0834The Cassis Shawlette is off the needles and blocked.  I made a few alterations to the pattern and am extremely pleased with the results.

The yarn is Malabrigo laceweight I purchased on clearance ages ago and can’t remember the colorway.  It knits up very nicely, and I love the fuzzy halo and loft in the finished piece.  The yarn is extremely soft and great to work with.  I used about 3/4 of one skein for the shawlette and may make some baby booties with the remnants.

dsc_0841Joining Ginny for her Yarn Along today, where we share what we’re knitting and reading.  This weekend I’ll be reffing a men’s derby tournament in Eugene, so today I’m trying to get caught up on house chores and snuggle time with the kids.  I haven’t had much time to read, except for an hour before the kids got up this morning.  I read a little further in Robert Harrison’s Gardens: An Essay on the Human Condition.  

Looking forward to catching up on everyone else’s posts in the Yarn Along when I get back Sunday night.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
