Still here
Its been a while since I’ve posted but plenty of knitterly things have been happening. I’ve finished the blue jeans shawl, which was a straight forward easy knit and gives me hope for one day designing my own triangular shawl.
Pre-blocked it wasn’t much to look at but it sure put my blocking mats to the test. 
Just starting out with the blocking here and wondering if I will have enough matting to get it done. Its not the first time I’ve thought of ordering a second set of mats, or hunting them down from a child’s toy store.
There it is when it was finally laid out and ready to dry. I’ve worn it a few times in the cubicle and loaned it out which led to a friend requesting one in black. Or at least a similar one. I’ve started on the Spring Thaw shawl for her in some Black Debbie Bliss Bamboo Wool Blend.
The Dalek is coming along and is actually nearly done. I just have to do the base and attach the arms. Granted it has been in this nearly done state for a couple weeks now.
Its full of stuffing and simply lacks a base and arms to go exterminating the population.
Lastly a picture a friend took at one of the many summer bbqs so far.
See I do sometimes venture into nature. I grabbed a bag of sock weight yarn in, blue, navy, white, and black. So naturally I thought Tardis, not to mention the shirt I was in.
So mostly using my shirt as a guide I created :
Much to the amusement of the other knitters and Who fans around me. So it is about 4 inches long and I backed it in black felt. It is the first of my Christmas Ornament experiment. The final goal being a set of geeky ornaments for aspect of my geek; TV, Books, Movies, Comics, etc…
That right there is the bottom. It’s pretty much huge. I can’t wait to block and have this as drape for when I’m freezing! at work.
I repeat the experinment in blocking seemed to work, but by the next day.
It looked like this again. I’ve worn it. Its super long, and i like it so shrug. I will have to try this blocking thing again. possibly more water. Or not sock yarn. Or both.
