Knit Magazine Issue 37 now available at Barnes & Noble

Issue 37 of Knit Magazine is finally out in bookstores. 
 Here’s a peek at the shawl. 

Additional information can be found in
I’ll be starting another one soon. This time I’m knitting it in Madelinetosh Lace Yarn, color Logwood (purple).

Super Hero? Hum?

Did very little knitting this weekend in working on my new pattern. Here I am at the Toastmaster’s  “Super Hero” Convention. My husband is very involved in Toastmasters, a public speaking club. They were having their speech competition this weekend. I’m sure you can tell that they’re a fun and enthusiastic group of people. Every convention, they select a theme and everyone shows up in costumes. Silly but fun. It’s only for one night of craziness though. The following night they get serious, a Gala affair loaded with great speakers competing for area finalist.
BTW, Hubby is Zorro, but don’t try to guess which super hero I am. Either I’m a super hero with an identity crisis,(don’t know who I am) or I’m still incognito not willing to disclose my identity to the world yet.  I like to think that I’m the latter.
Definitely super at something. Ha, ha, ha.

Ok, enough fighting villains now back to tackling my next pattern. 

Knit Magazine Issue 37

I just received my complementary issue of Knit Magazine Issue 37 and finally got to see my Camelot’s Embrace Shawl pattern in print. The magazine won’t be available here in the US until mid May. It’s a lovely magazine with great articles and patterns.
I’ll be posting pictures of the shawl soon. The model is just lovely. She shows the shawl being worn as a scarf and also as a shawl. This is something that I wanted to stress since this pattern gives instructions for making it larger or smaller, even as small as a scarf. That’s pretty convenient if you don’t have a lot of yarn or prefer wearing scarves. I’ll give more details later and post some photos too.
