Yay, another knitalong! This time sponsored by Wendy, her “Summer of Lace.” I’ve added a button to my sidebar and everything. (And yes, I know, she hasn’t even posted the options yet, but since I designed a couple of them, I figured it was okay to just, you know, start using one of them, so I picked my favorite.)

The next question is . . . what to knit? I could count my Peacock Feathers, but since it’s almost finished, that doesn’t seem fair. Since I’ve made three triangular shawls in the last few months (and one Pi-are-Square, whatever shape that counts as), I’m thinking something like a square or a stole this time. I’ve got some spring green Kid Silk Haze in the closet, and I have some copper-colored Zephyr, so no matter what, I’m going to try to pick something to do with one of those!

Meanwhile, I’m trying to assemble my first SP5 box for my pal. For no good reason at all, I’m suffering from Gift-Block. She gave great answers in her questionnaire, and she posts on her blog pretty regularly, so it’s not like I’m working blind, and yet for some reason, inspiration has not hit. Like I said, no good reason for this, just . . . it’s there. (Or more precisely, not there!) Still, she did list a specific thing she wants . . . so even though I generally prefer not to “gift” off of lists–I like to come up with things on my own–I think she’ll be getting that thing (about which I will not be more specific in case she reads my blog) and I’ll try to be more inspired for the next one!
