Happy Monday!

I actually got some stuff done in the last week.

I finished the bamboo shawl:

Lovely feel and drape.

And looks nice against a black chair!

I started another shawl that will use the same pattern, but in a different color. This time up: blue.

That's as far as I got though.

And I got yarn for a new crochet project! Yay!

It's a lovely purple in merino and ... something else that I forget.

I even did a couple of gauge swatches, something I'm not normally prone to doing. This is with the hook that's called for in the pattern. Way too big.

And here's one hook size down. It probably doesn't look any different, but trust me, the gauge was a good idea.
