Win Some Yarn

One of my suppliers, Estelle Yarns, is having a contest. Here's your chance to win some pretty Urth Yarn to make the Butterfly shawl.

The Papillon Shawl calls for a fingering weight yarn with a long colour transition and we think Urth Yarns Uneek Fingering is the perfect fit! Each and every skein of Uneek Fingering is truly a work of art with its rich, vibrant colours, its earthy feel, and the exceptional softness in every skein. This outstanding 100% Superwash Extrafine Merino has sensational hand and comes in a true kaleidoscope of colours.

Pattern: Butterfly / Papillon (purchased on Ravelry)

We have a sample hanging in the store and the shawl is beautiful.

I promised pictures of Starting Point. There are a few ends to sew in. I was sure that I was going to run out of yarn but I made it.

I've been knitting on my Prism Shawl. Mitred squares are fun. There could have been more knitting today but I did a bit of cleaning. All the bedding has been washed. Mr. Roko is fine but he had a small accident today and ripped one of his dew claws. We had blood everywhere. Beth took him to the emergency vet and they cleaned it up and put a bandage on him. While they were gone I washed the floors. Unfortunately the blood went through the bandage and I had to wash part of the floor again. It's all good - he's sleeping like a baby right now. Once I hit Publish I'm sitting down with a tea and picking up the needles.
