All in all in was fun. Let's see, what highlights did I miss telling you about. Oh, my husband falling into the river was noteworthy. Completely submerged-hat glasses, New England Patriots swetshirt, wallet...all drenched....we did have access to a laundry at the campground, so he threw the sweatshirt into the dryer. (I don't have the heart to tell him it smells like riverwater in the car now-water from a "dead" river to boot.)
So, I am Not done with the shawl but the end is in sight. I resisted the urge to undo a whole row after someone worked on it. Everyone thinks it best to leave it as is-it's the thought that counts more than the expertise of craft.
I will mention though, if you do use the Noro sock yarn, whether for this prayer shawl, a pair of socks, or any other project, I recommend pullin from the outside of the skein. The inside pull is easy enough to find, however the character of the yarn causes it to knot and tangle too easily. I think I've spent as much time untangling knots as I have knitting the shawl!
Yours in beautiful striped Noro,
Claire
