I received 33 entries for the giveaway and yesterday through the help of a random number generator, I am happy to congratulate POK as the winner of the giveaway. I will also email you to let you know. If you are reading this think about what color stitch markers you want and what pattern you would like.

| Congrats POK! |
So with that awarded let's talk about what I have been working on.
Sun and Stars Trillian
 |
| This is getting really big! |
I have spent a lot of time working on this shawl over the past couple of weeks. I have about 150 of the 191 stitches before I finish the last border. I think this is going to be so lovely once it's done. The yarn pooled again but the stripey effect is gorgeous too.
I was lagging on this a bit but I got new ChiaoGoo Red Lace knitting needles and I am so excited. These needles aren't catching the yarn and the cord is really nice. I am going to save my pennies to get a set of interchangeables.

I actually got 2 new pairs of needles and couldn't wait to cast on something new. I have been patiently waiting for the Trillian to get done but I gave in and cast on for this shawl. Samie from NotYourGramsAfghan got me the Rainbow Mini Skeins for Christmas and I worked with Tami to get the base color which is Blackberry.
So after some creative winding (read: Big ball of knots on my lap) I got started. I have up through the Lime green color done. I just keep wanting to add colors.
What do you think?
Well that's it for this week. For other WIPs check out Tami's Amis and Frontier Dreams
