Squirrel!!

It's out of my system.  I tried it, I stayed up late, I knit on it a bit this morning, it is now history.

I cast on last night and yes, it is a easy pattern to do, I think I will like it, but not out of lace weight.   It seems like my chosen yarn and gauge just is not showing the pattern nor the lusciousness of the  yarn off to it's full potential.   I think I want mine to be more of a light fingering and I think I will save it for my Summer of Shawls.

I am, however, swatching for the Birds Nest Shawl KAL over on the Knitaway Group on Ravelry.

I am using my silver Just Beautiful Alpaca.  I love this yarn!  If you aren't knitting on anything, come join us!
