Or so Carrie tells me so.

Hey, look! An Effin-O.
- Pattern: Simple Yet Effective Shawl
- Start: 15 Sept 09 just after WI vacay
- Finish: 27 Oct 09 on way to see doc in Dallas
- Yarn: 3 skeins Mini Mochi bought at the Sow’s Ear in WI
- Needles: US 5 Addi Lace, also bought at the Sow’s Ear
- Por: me
Easy, mindless pattern. Yarn was knotted in several places and very loose spun in others. Not a sock yarn for sure. Also stained my fingers. Soaked in vinegar and euclan.

Just to prove I’m not all about the roid rage. This is for my baby.
That is all.

I’m going to relax with Icarus since I have the damn iv outta my arm now. Yeah. You heard me. Icarus.
Happy Wednesday Bitches!

Whoa, looks bee-u-ti-ful. And Icarus too? What’s the world coming to?

You knit?
Btw, you are not nearly angry enough to be channeling me. Trust me.

Shall I send Cookie your texts so she can experience the full onslaught of the Squish?
Lovely lovely shawl. I’ll believe Icarus when I see it.

That shawl came out wonderful! I have a few skeins of that laying around, as the stripey stuff kinda freaks me out. Thanks for the beautiful example of what it can do!
I’ve been wanting to knit the Icarus for a while! I’ll be waiting for your reviews.
Cause if it sucks, it’s of of the list!

And Uncle Cracker. Wowza.
So really knitting Icarus, eh? Wonders never cease.

wow! you really do knit…. I thought it was just a lie!
I love it! Even though the yarn suxs, it sure does look beautiful!
Did you just knit it continuous, or did you stop with each color like Angie?

Best of luck with the shawl – someday I want to make an Icarus, too.
