I am making good progress on the Mangia Shawl kit that I bought in Rhinebeck from Decadent Fibers. I am very pleased with it.

My sister Kim ordered the same kit from the decadentfibers.com website and is looking forward to starting her shawl on Thanksgiving weekend when we will all be at our Mother’s house upstate. Kim will most likely be borrowing my circular needles so I must be done by then. Just 5 more inches to go and then the ruffley ends.

Once this is complete, I plan on making some hats and mittens with my alpaca yarn and work on the Fair Isle I am making for my Mother in Law. I can’t wait to give it to her! 

I am still waiting for my Ravelry invite! Boy am I getting antsy! I don’t know why, but I can’t wait to set myself up in there and join some groups and knitalongs. I know it is going to be a lot of fun.
