Now that control of my TV has gone back to regular programming, my knitting can go back to the list I had pre-Olympics.
Remember this: the Colonnade Shawl? Loopy remembered it when he took off his Olympic scarf and quit chanting Ravelry, Ravelry.
I had added 4 rows of the variegated color shown in the picture and discovered that I had gotten distracted and was so off count that I frogged the whole thing and put it back on the needles last night while I watched 2012 (excellent movie, by the way).
I am using a couple extra markers on it this time and have rewritten the section for the lace to make it easier to keep up with. I hope it works. This is another item that needs to be finished and delivered to the shop for a sample. I think this shawl will be the perfect Colorado-weight. There is the option to make it short for a chunky scarf or longer for a nice shoulder wrap for a cool summer evening.
I hope everyone is finding fun things to do during this early Spring~!

Your little Loopy looks so cute sitting in the middle of the shawl!
