When You're Sick...
...knit a shawl.
Here I am, sick as the proverbial dog, modelling the Shetland Triangle Shawl on this Easter Sunday. I'm tempted to call it The 21 Jump Street Shawl because I watched a whole season of that mindless eighties series on DVD this week while sitting on the sofa knitting. I've been absolutely flattened by a nasty virus that has been complicated by a dental emergency. It's been the kind of illness that only bad TV, rhythmic knitting and massive amounts of painkillers can make bearable. (When I say bad TV, I mean So-bad-it's-good).
Anyway, the virus is subsiding and the sun is shining this afternoon. I'm beginning to recover from Stage One of what promises to be a long and expensive dental process. Also, I have a pretty new shawl.
This is the third pattern I've knit by Evelyn A. Clark. It is not an intentional happening. I guess I'm just drawn to her designs.

Beautiful shawl. Nasty virus!
21 Jump Street? Wow, now that is going back a ways.
I hope you recover fast and well.
