Well what better way to spend Good Friday than contemplating the spiritual aspects of knitting?
Can you think of another better thing to do? Well, thanks to my Knitters Review Secret Pal I did just that, and did it well!
I got the book, Knitting Into the Mystery: A Guide to the Shawl-Knitting Ministry
by Susan S. Izard, Susan S. Jorgensen in the mail today! It’s awsome! I couldn’t put it down! I even fell asleep with it in my hands.
I already know who I need to make my first prayer shawl for. A friend of mine at church who will be going through a trying time of rekindled grief soon. Now to figure out what yarn to use! I think I am actually going to try to tackle this on needles too.
I have decided that instead of casting on the second sleeve of the sweater, I will cast on the front body peice.. or the whole thing after I triple check the gauge. I am just uninspired by doing another sleeve and hey.. If I do this part.. then I have the whole pattern done because you just do two matching sleeves! AHA! Motovation! I will cast on tonight!
Then after the body peice is done I will naturally motivated to do the second sleeve so I can finish it!!
What a plan!
