		<description><![CDATA[Remember this shawl that became a treat for some little bug? Then: Well, I finally ripped it out, washed the yarn and started reknitting this shawl. It&#8217;s going pretty well. It&#8217;s gives me lots of knitting therapy and the colors are pretty. Now: I lost several inches due to splicing the yarn back together, but all in all, it&#8217;s looking very much like it did originally.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi. Yes, I&#8217;m still out here in the world. Is anybody out there? It&#8217;s been a challenging year&#8230; during part of which, my favorite yarn store closed. I really only knit on one thing this for most of the summer &#8211; black rainbow shawl (the stripe study shawl) and I only finished it this past week. These photos are pre-block. But I really like how it came out. Not really stripey, which I really like. This shawl is for me.<a class="more-link" href="http://www.saffronknits.net/?p=1466">[Read more]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[*tap tap tap* Is this thing on? Anybody out there? Yes, I&#8217;m still alive and breathing. I&#8217;m attempting to make some changes in my RL and unfortunately, blogging seems to be a casualty in this case. I am sad about that, but there&#8217;s only so much energy and time a person has. So blogging for the next little while will be a bit sporadic. But I&#8217;m knitting up a storm and my spinning wheel is even getting a little attention<a class="more-link" href="http://www.saffronknits.net/?p=1419">[Read more]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lately, I&#8217;ve been a little stressed and a little overwhelmed&#8230; so I decided that I needed a little comfort. That, of course, meant knitting. So I pulled out some handspun, wound it up and started knitting a very basic triangular shawl. No specific pattern but lots of mindless stockinette with lots of color. The color of the shawl reminds me of an impressionistic painting so I&#8217;m calling it my &#8216;Monet Shawl&#8217;. Here&#8217;s are some photos of fiber, yarn and just<a class="more-link" href="http://www.saffronknits.net/?p=1395">[Read more]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Buying new stuff for my stash is not currently in the budget so I am looking to my cherished stash to knit patterns that I&#8217;ve fallen in love with. One such pattern is the Stripe Study Shawl. If you have not seen this recently released pattern, it is an asymmetrical triangular shawl knit in garter stitch. I pondered a bit, trying to figure out what I wanted to use. I have some CCM Merino-Nylon that I could use, but the<a class="more-link" href="http://www.saffronknits.net/?p=1374">[Read more]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am knitting a hat and a shawl&#8230;. Need more details than that? Ok, ok. The hat is true mindless knitting. It&#8217;s the Sockhead Hat pattern and I am used Cabin Cove Mercantile&#8217;s Ombre yarn in the colorway &#8216;Coal&#8217;. The yarn has this cool spiral thing goin&#8217; on and this has been a great project when life stresses me out and I need to calm down. The shawl I am knitting is a kind of &#8216;fly-by-the-seat-of-pants&#8217; project.

		<description><![CDATA[Don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve forgotten about my handspun shawl. I truly haven&#8217;t. I had been hoping to spin more yarn for it. I&#8217;ve got one bobbin done and the 2nd is barely started. But when I pulled the shawl out of the drawer, I discovered holes. YES! Some little bug chewed holes in my shawl over the summer! I had some other woolens in the same drawer and it seems the bug(s) have discriminating taste as they only went for the<a class="more-link" href="http://www.saffronknits.net/?p=1030">[Read more]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finished the pink shawl&#8230; FINALLY! Geez, it took me six months. I’m so happy that it is completed &#8217;cause now I can gift it! To celebrate it&#8217;s completion, I joined a knit-a-long &#8230; sort of. The SpinDoctor podcast is having a knit-a-long &#8211; Maine Morning Mitts using handspun. My &#8216;kinda-sorta-maybe-in-a-way-but-not-really’ participation is to make fingerless mitts with my handspun &#8230; but not use that pattern but more making it up as I go along. But you can’t see ‘em<a class="more-link" href="http://www.saffronknits.net/?p=898">[Read more]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I happily cast on for the Show Your Colors/Lavalette shawl a few weeks ago. When I got to the lace section, things took a turn for the worse. I mean, this is the simplest of lace patterns, but I had to rip out the lace section three time before I could get it to work. If this hadn&#8217;t been a gift, I might have just let it go at the second try. Now it&#8217;s going slowly but surely.]]></description>
