I've been crazy productive this week. I just finished designing a spring shawl first a few times and then finished it. It's a pretty knitting pattern that's also quick to memorize. The pattern is fun, that's how it should be! Knitting is done with Novena by Lang and 5 gauge needles, olive wood needles work great for this yarn. And it goes nice and fast! I'm just waiting for yarn supplies, then it can go further.

I also made a shawl from Creative Linen by Rowan. For the Maschenfein book, which will be published in September. It is the 22nd model and is knitted from the right tip to the left edge. I like the yarn very much, it should not be knitted with too pointed needles (because it is not very tightly twisted) and runs quite wonderfully soft on bamboo needles. Wound yesterday and already knitted a whole skein. Incredible!

I have also finished designing three more designs for the book. The pattern are noted and the little shawl swatches are knitted. One with True Silk from Rowan, which shines beautifully. And two with the two new yarns from Lamana, Bergamo and Milano. Today a big delivery arrives here, which will be knitted in the coming days and weeks. Fortunately, I have very energetic support. I have only two hands, nech?

My projects go today to the needles. Must also link myself times!
