I managed to squeeze in a couple of photos between stops.
This shawl is a cozy, versatile wrap. It's perfect to wear out. Or stay in and snuggle up with a good book.
The yarn is Dirty Water DyeWorks Marie, colorway Pea Pod. Marie has a bit of cashmere which makes for a smooth, soft knit. I can't seem to get enough of this yarn and will have to plan another project with it.
Here's a peek at my latest sock.
I was planning to make a simple ribbed sock, but then I stumbled across Jeck. Jeck uses a modified rib - a little something to keep it interesting.

This week I was outside looking for colorful signs of spring. All I found were the remnants of winter. I know that the crocuses have popped, but I have yet to see one. My color inspiration for this week is tightly wrapped and hidden.
Buds waiting to burst.

Thanks for the link to Jeck! I had not seen it before and it's exactly what I'm looking for today. I purchased a lovely, more complicated pattern from the new Twist Collective this morning, but it just doesn't feel like the right day to start it. With the ever-changing weather, I think I need simple and rhythmic. So, thanks again!
PS - the shawl is beautiful! That green just sings spring!
Great shawl. Love the way the rib edge joins the pattern.
I have crocuses next to my driveway, so feel free to pull in and take a look as soon as this four inches of "on the rain side of the rain/snow line" melts!
