It’s raining, it’s pouring

Being a little glum since the weather is just that — dark and gloomy — I got myself to the little LYS on Dunbar (A Touch of Wool) and picked up another skein of the pink Kitten mohair. At $5.49, why not just finish off the silly little Flower Basket Shawl? So, I used a tiny bit off this new skein to finally bind off the FBS. Blocked it last night and it should be all dry and ready to wear tonight!

And here’s the progress on the Manly Sweater. The ribbing squishes together so much that the p1 part is nearly imperceptible! Will need to block this open a bit so that you can see the lovely vertical lines. Besides, men shouldn’t wear tight sweaters. Shudder!
