Thank you all for your very kind comments on Friday's post. The week of the 12th-16th is always a bit challenging for me. This is an anniversary full of both the celebration of life and the memorializing of loss. Each year, I am either surprised at how happy I am or disappointed by how stressed I am.
This year, feeling a great need for comfort knitting, I cast on a new project. Using the softest yarn I have ever touched, Jade Sapphire's cashmere, I started a simple stockinette shawl--one I think will become the Seraphim shawl. Nothing could have been more perfect. But now it has to go in the box for a little while as I finish up other projects....
Again, thank you all for being so kind and encouraging.
Tomorrow: pictures of the blocked Kiri shawl.
