The one day I get out and spend time with my friends – Tuesday’s knitting group. I’m not going today. I’m probably contagious and it wouldn’t be right to go and share my germs. It makes me sad to miss. I really look forward to getting together with these ladies, but .. I’m doing the right thing by staying home and not sharing my germs.
I told Vince last night that I’m going to pretend I’m at knitting and just sit and knit for about four hours straight. He said “That’s what you do every day!”
I find myself in between projects . . waiting til tomorrow when I can cast on for the August Camp Loopy project. The mystery isn’t holding my attention and I think it’s just because I know I’ll put it down tomorrow and probably not get back to it for weeks.
Remember the “Bruce” colored yarn?

I think I’m going to use it to make Mystical Forest Lace Shawl. I’ve narrowed it down to 2 or 3 or 4 beads I’ll use. Maybe after while I’ll do a little swatch and we can all decide which beads I should use.
Go look at the pattern so you’ll be ready when it’s time to cast your vote for beads. I know . . you don’t care what beads I use but I love it when you all tell me what you think and why you think it.

That is a gorgeous shawl! I’m interested in her glow in he dark beads although I don’t think I would ever use them. Bring on the beads!
Deb says
I love this shawl – it is really stunning. I’m amazed anyone can make that lace – your talent is amazing. I love that silver butterfly pin in one of the pictures – where do they sell those?
Judy says
That’s a beautiful pattern! I’ll look forward to seeing it completed!
Cilla Tyler says
OMG that has to be the be shawl I have ever seen. If I could knit or crochet I’d have on in every shade. Can’t wait to see your bead choices.
Teri says
It’s beautiful….glow in the dark beads…what a concept….love it….
Judy D in WA says
Do you have glow in the dark beads? Oh I hope so cuz they are getting my vote. I can hear my grandboys now saying how cool you are! LOL My question…with that amount of beads, do you have to string them all on before you start knitting? I know nothing about knitting with beads.
Joyce says
That is a gorgeous shawl! I can’t wait to see it when it is finished.
Nelle Coursey says
You were missed at knitting today! I hope Beth sent you the picture of my show and tell today!! LOL

At the risk of sounding nuts, I want to tell you that since I started taking apple cider vinegar every day (it’s awful), I haven’t gotten sick once. It is amazing since I had major back surgery and a very compromised immune system. Lots of “recipes” on Pinterest if you are interested. Hope you feel better soon!

Wow, that is so pretty. I hope you find a bead with a bit of sparkle to it. This Bruce stuff is going to be great for it, I think.
