Escape Velocity
Well I guess I achieved escape velocity today with Birch. (Go check out Stephanie's physics post on knitting if you don't know what I'm talking about.)
It's not blocked yet, and the child was the closest thing I had to throw it over for the picture. More tomorrow when I am (hopefully) feeling better.
I knew it could be done.

The shawl is lovely. I remember trying to break the 130 mark. Now, I try to stay way under. Not easy, no B&J.. but altogether possible. Way to go!

It still looks beautiful draped around your little girl. I wish I had the nerve to start birch, but I'm chicken. AND I only have 2 skeins of KSH
