My Creative Space....

It may seem the crafty side of things has been a bit slow around here this week....It's all because of this Boneyard Shawl  I am making for Scott...I was suppose to have it finished by this weekend but not sure I am going to make that deadline...I am not quite half way, it took me several days and this was the quick half..OH well at least I have motivation to finish.

The pattern is super easy and I love the manly look to it. It will be perfect for Scott to wear when he is out in the hot desert kicking up dust playing the "bad guy" for all the units coming into Fort Irwin for training before they head out on deployment. He wasn't too sure about it at first but now that he can see it coming together he keeps asking me when it will be done. Go Figure...........



I promise once this is done I will have more crochet going on...Have a few ideas sketched up to create that I am excited about!!

Lot's more going on over at Kirsty's...Check it......

The shawl looks good! I'd never have thought of a masculine shawl but it is!
