Well I've got my latest knitting project done. It's a shawl in the 'Chicks With Sticks Guide to Knitting' book.

I don't really need the shawl, but every project in the book teaches a few new techniques. This one taught me how to pick up stitches, so that I can add knitting to an otherwise finished shape, and a new kind of increase.

I also knitted it using a different style of knitting, continental. It didn't turn out as smooth as it would have if I'd knitted it english style, but I think a little more practice and I'll really have this down.

Love the yarn, so pretty.
