Knitting & Crochet Blog Week is the idea of Mimi of Eskimimi Makes. Mimi sets a series of challenges, a topic for each day of the week. Quite a challenge! I took part a couple of weeks ago and am going to give it another go this year. So here we go...
A day in the life of my favourite shawl
The yarn is yarnscape's beautiful Wintersea. I am a tad proud of the shawl it was my first attempt at lace and I wear it often but since I bought this beautiful pyrex shawl pin at Wonderwool
I have worn it constantly. Even today
WHEN I WAS PAINTING THE BOXES FOR MY STUDIO. Madness - I am a messy painter, I could have spoilt it, but luckily I didn't.
So this Day in the Life of my Blight was a risky one, but luckily no harm done.
A day in the life of my favourite shawl
It's called Blight - knitted for a dare, well a KAL actually about 2 years ago. I knitted fast and furious for nearly week and because I was the fourth to finish I won a prize, a skein of yarn sent all the way from NYC. I still have the yarn, ear-marked for another shawl but never quite got around to winding the skein and casting on.

I love your shawl pin - I have never seen one like that before and I didn't know they were made of pyrex. It is perfectly coloured to match your favourite shawl. I would never have guessed that it was your first attempt at a lace shawl if you hadn't said so. Beautiful work.
