A post in Instagram photos (and one non)

Totally unrelated to knitting, I really like Instagram. You can take fun little square photos with your smartphone, apply various pictures, tag them with a location and post them to your twitter / Facebook / whatever.

I haven't been posting much because I've been hard at work designing and knitting secret things, but here's a bit of an update.

My new pattern, Isaz on Ravelry (linked) and Knit Picks IDP.



Last weekend I met my friend Nicole for brunch (and sadly not much knitting) but while I was waiting I got a hot chocolate and worked on the Ishbel that I'm knitting in ivory Handmaiden Sea Silk for my friend Christina's wedding that I'll be attending in mid-June.



Never fear, I am now well into the lace on this shawl, and I have until June 9th.

Today Nicole and Mimi and I went on a bit of the Puget Sound LYS Tour. Last year I did the whole thing (I believe last year it was 27 shops!) so this year I felt like I didn't need to try to do it all again. Instead we just hit some of the new shops we hadn't been to and a couple old favorites that aren't close to home, like this one in West Seattle.



One of the new shops, Serial Knitters in Kirkland, was really great! And they had star cookies, which is always a plus for me. ;)



So there you have it!
