The musings and meanderings of a mixed media artist and yarn junkie who loves to knit,spin, crochet, make a mess, write and enjoy life. I try to follow the wheel of the year and enjoy each day of it. My art reflects that spiritual journey.

My first:) Tour de France shawl is finished:)
I am very pleased to announce that my first Tour de France shawl is completed:) I am also almost half way through another in shades of yellow to celebrate Lammas, which is coming up.
The pictures aren't too good because we actually have had a full day of sunshine here today. Making the most of it because tomorrow is forecast for yet more rain.
I love the finished shawl even though it is white and the moggie doesn't do white. Too messy to wear white:)
I'm pleased I didn't give in and stop knitting.
BTW the contest just leave a comment if you want the giveaway yarn and I'll contact winner for their address.

Beautiful job! It reminds me of the kites you've got pictured below: ready for a paragliding flight through the clouds.
Hey, Amber, that's fast... you're not using doping, aren't you? :-)
Amber, the shawl, she is beautiful!
SO very glad you didn't give up the knitting...
Lovely shawl, my dear! Glad you didn't bag it.
It looks very lilac on my screen, not white, maybe you could dye it and wear it? *^v^* Great job!
Very pretty. I'm very sloppy so I don't wear white either.
You are fast, are you a 'sprinter' by chance! I have been watching the last half hour each morning of the Tour and knitting a Pi Shawl, but alas, I need about 100m more yarn - what to do!

Great shawl! Way to get back on the bike! :)
What a beautiful shawl. Well done on the determination. You deserve to win the Polka Dot Jersey!
Good luck with the next one
Oh it is a beauty Amber and I am so glad you didn't pack in the knitting
