Fiftieth post


And a golden project to celebrate it with, since I've finally managed to find enough floor space to block this monster of a shawl.

Icarus

Pattern? Icarus, originally from the Summer 2006 Interweave Knits

Yarn?
Kaalund Classic Two in Nectarine (looked like flames to me), 3 balls.

Needles? 3.5mm Addi bamboo circulars

Time Taken? Knitting took from the 20th of May to the 24th of August this year, blocking happened this week.

Finished size? 74" wide, 37" high (I am 5' exactly).

Do I like it? I love it. I have no idea when I'll wear it, mind.

Did I do the 'traditional' knitblogger wingspan shot?


Is it time I thought about dying my hair? Possibly. I've been going grey since I was 21, but this year it has really started to show, as in the photo above, and I'm not all that happy about it.
