My husband makes blackberry milkshakes,from our homemade 'high fiber blackberry jam' Melissa and I made this summer. (High fiber cause we didn't strain any seeds.) While I knit on my scarf at night. It's a fun KAL, and the small group motivates me to get it done.

Cool picture babe and the blackberry Jam Rocks in a milkshake.
ReplyDeleteLooks fabulous! I am just starting clue three. I have been slow going.
ReplyDeletelooks beautiful ~ you must have bought tons of beads! and now I need to try a blackberry jam milkshake....me and my big butt say thanks, thanks alot ;)
ReplyDeleteKelli,
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful!! I am a bead newbie, and haven't had the courage to stray from the pattern directions on bead placement. You obviously have a wonderful eye for doing so and I envy you!
While I think I have a couple of skeins of Dawn yarn in my stash, I have never actually used it before. After seeing yours, I am definitely going to have to bump it up the list on my queue.
I am amused that all of us doing this KAL seem to prefer a tighter knit lace. I can't imagine the gargantuan size of mine had I chosen a larger needle.
I can hardly wait to see more if your pictures!
Morgen ~ did you see the first KAL shawl we did together when we talked at the guild meeting? It was a salmon color ~ I'd not done lace before, the scarf was wider and longer than the one we're doing now and I bought SOCK yarn that was definitely a heavier fingering weight....my scarf if ENORMOUS!!!!! I had fun afterwards figuring out all the things I could use it for since it was so big: a tarp, the red carpet at the next Oscar ceremony, my funeral shroud (I could be wrapped and mummified in it it's that long), a hammock.....you get my point
