More ugliness

Worked for 2 1/2 hours tonight (during Idol) on the ugly shawl. It's actually fun, I work whatever yarn for however many rows I feel like. I follow the pattern as close as I can, but I see I did get it flipped around at one point, so you can see more purling than you should. But whatever. It's functional, and a no-brainer. My hands hurt. That never happens. But I'm achy all over tonight anyway. Tomorrow I get to work the yarn shop. When I did it last week it wasn't busy at all, but I expect a Thursday to be more busy. Not as much knitting time. But I'm not there to sit and knit, I'm there to take care of the shop. It's still fun to be around all that lovely yarn! And she should have a new shipment of Cherry Tree Hill sock in!

World's Uglest Shawl

I cast on this morning the feather and fan shawl, but with a specific purpose. Or 2. First, this is made out of my worsted weight stash ends. I am purposely just grabbing, not arranging colors at all. So purpose one is to use up scrap, purpose 2 is to crown myself winner of the ugliest shawl contest to be held here on my blog, with myself as the judge, and myself as the only permitted entrant. So far so ugly!
