Back with a shawl

It has been a while... There are many, and not many, reasons why - the most recent reason is that I am back in the classroom. So lovely, but work is having an impact on the amount of time I have for woolly makes and sewing. My must-make-this-now list is yet to catch up with this reduction in hours.

But, following nicely from my previously shown make, I have a shawl made from the same dreamy Cosmic Strings yarn

 Such a beautifully soft yarn, I was so looking forward to seeing this colour knit up. The colourway is foxglove, and I initially used it last year for the cast off edge of another shawl where it looked gorgeous - but I was eager to see more

 So with almost a full skein I chose the Onete Scarf by Fairmount Fibres Design Team. Such a gorgeous (free!) pattern - I love those garter stitch bumps. I wore it to school this week, which is what reminded me that I still hadn't blogged about it. Maybe I'll rummage around for another thing to wear next week meaning another post! Happy October everyone...
