I&#8217;m going to rip back the few inches of the Beginner&#8217;s Triangle Shawl and start on an adventure&#8230; my own shawl. \ud83d\ude42 Not like I&#8217;m doing anything fancy.  I&#8217;m going to look around and see what lace edgings I like and figure out the base number of stitches for the edging of my choice.  That will probably affect whether I start with an odd number of stitches or even.  Deb told me she just did a garter stitch triangle, then a lace edging.  This is the basic construction of the Wool Peddler&#8217;s Shawl I just completed, so this should be pretty straightforward.  Nifty. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also thinking of starting a pair of socks for the Husband since he has managed to wear holes right through the bottoms of both socks in the last pair I made him, now they were a little bit over a year old and he wore them a lot whenever it was cold out.  I think they ran into the problem of the carpet in our apartment being rougher stuff than the wool they were made out of.  I picked up a couple different colors of a washable wool yarn that looks to be sport weight, so it should work nicely.  <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also hoping to get the drum carder out of the box sometime this weekend.  I got it a month ago, and it&#8217;s just been sitting in its box the whole time.  I had been so busy with school stuff that I had to ignore it to get assignments done.  But, the long weekend should afford me some time to play.  <\/p>\n<p>Now for some peppermint tea&#8230; and some painkillers&#8230; for the kink in my neck is giving me a righteous headache. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many thanks to Deb!
