Another chart from Mystic Waters is done. Chart D has hit the trash bin. I'll be setting up on chart E in a little bit. My magnets are not strong enough to hold the shawl in a stretched-out pose, but I'm into the icicle center part.
Other knitting - well I'm working on a Caledonian Mist Sock from Pink Lemon Twist. She's actually issuing two patterns, one simple and one complex, at a time. I didn't do well with the previous Knitty pattern - boy did I lose my place and hosed the whole thing. So it was frogged and I started over with Caledonian Mist.
The other pattern in this pair is called Scarborough Fair. It's gorgeous with twisted patterns on it. I do have yarn for it too!
Adding a final two photos. One shows the state of some of the Bradford Pears here at the condos. The other shows PK watching the birds and anything else that moves. What it doesn't show is how her tail is lashing back and forth. She's showing her moodiness today. Wanting to have her ears rubbed but when you reach, she's fluffed up and batting at you.
For some reason all today's photos have a very blue cast to them. It's cloudy out and storms are expected late tonight and into tomorrow. That might have something to do with it. The color in Mystic Water seems very close. The sock is a deep teal green. Bradford Pear blossoms are a clear white. The cat is a cinnamon and gray tabby - so maybe that's why she is blue as well. Hopefully better photos next time.

I missed seeing you tonight, and your shawl and sock! Hopefully I won't be working next week so I can hang out with you ladies. :)
I too am still working on my Mystic Waters Shawl! I thought I was the only one! :o) Looking good Gail!
Your Mystic Waters is beautiful. What a gorgeous yarn!!!! And those socks!!!!! Who are you calling Enabler? :)
The Pear tree is lovely. Nothing is blooming here yet, except the snowdrops.
Guess I'll just have to make my own...
Blessings!
Your Mystic Waters is lovely!
And yes, photos do add a touch of realism. The hospital was a bit bewildered by Hanabi, mainly because she didn't require meals. I will keep you posted :)
