It is hard to loose my south Louisiana roots - can you say Cajun? Does gumbo have meaning? Now, life revolves around the southern California area from the sandy beaches to the Valley and out to the desert.
Months ago, whilst on summer vacation, these mitered triangles were worked. The yarn does all the work of changing colors. I love this style of yarn because it removed the need to weave in a gazillion ends.
Summer was six months ago and still the thing isn't finished. But I am determined.
It was a simple thing to pick up stitches across the wide part of the triangle strip. With simple garter edges and basic yarn over increases on each side a shawl is growing.
If I stay focused, this will be done in 2015. The fact that the colors are very summery (at least for my way of thinking) I probably will not wear it until next summer. As in 2016. Which makes me wonder why I spend time trying to finish it this year.
