Almost Big Enough…

…for a shawl, if it were one. But since it’s not, as you can see, I’ve still got a long way to go. I’m not getting tired of knitting it, exactly, but I am getting a wee bit bored of not being able to knit anything else. However, my sense of purpose keeps me going, and I am at least fairly certain that I will not be working on this blanket for eight months like I did on the last one. I’ve found several things on the internet that I’d like to try:

• The Lizard Ridge Hat
• The Bulky Beret
• An Elizabeth Zimmermann Mystery Blanket from Knitter’s Almanac

For the last one I am hoping to find a yarn with long color changes like Noro Kureyon, but that isn’t Kureyon, because I hate the way it feels. I’m thinking maybe a Trendsetter yarn. I’ll have to see.

Here’s a closeup of the blanket today… couldn’t resist. More soon, I hope!
