But it also sounds as though you've figured out how to "go with the flow". Aren't shawls the best summer knitting there is? No gauge or fit worries. Yours are lovely. Maybe you can organize your yarn on shelves in the open (it's what I do)so you can enjoy looking at it and keep track of it at the same time. Loved your photos of DC, where we lived for so many years.Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03550076661380685327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5391048348570890883.post-8248383593571001162011-08-07T09:18:20.825-04:002011-08-07T09:18:20.825-04:00I know what you mean about decluttering the house ...I know what you mean about decluttering the house before school starts.

I have really enjoyed knitting it and the (almost) finished shawl is so pretty.<br /><br />Hang in there.

I confess I've got mine all in a list on 6 pages. A small notebook but a long list. Too long to be bothered typing it into anything. They're roughly sorted so I can find stuff. Nice when I can draw a line through some :)Stephanie Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206167025245206754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5391048348570890883.post-61072915598635594052011-08-06T17:30:13.348-04:002011-08-06T17:30:13.348-04:00Well they're all looking beautiful.

I actually just bought yarn for a shawl very much like your Malabfigo shawl. I am making myself hold off until I finish a circular vest I've been knitting for a while.<br />Have a great day,<br />MEredithMereknitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04596140300034854370noreply@blogger.com
