There has been knitting and it isn't socks and it isn't hats.
May I present to you the beginning of Midnight's moonlight shawl.
Yarn is a mix of fleece artist mo and an unnamed glittery cone I've got. Don't they look gorgeous together? This shawl is going to be (hopefully) very long and very wide. The kind you wrap round yourself on moonlit nights.
I love how it is knitting up together.
just a hint of glitter when it moves, just like moonlight glistening through the trees.
mohair never photographs easily and the glitter doesn't show in the other ball, but still a great pairing.

More later.
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.

Gorgeous colours Amber...am also rather impressed with your upright swift (I have an antique version), did mr Mog make it?
Gorgeous shawl - I think it's about time you treated yourself! Looking forward to seeing how it progresses...
That is so beautiful. Will look stunning on moonlit rambles with the shiny bits.
The shawl looks great so far - beautiful colors! Have a nice weekend!
