So, I know this is completely self-glorifying, but I feel like all of y'all are my friends! I've been on here for a while, and you have all helped me with a bunch, whether ya know it or not!

Gentlemen-
OK, on row 54 of the "Tree of Life" afghan (pix to follow...) and grafting in new skeins...

This is my second go-round on 'VKandis Sunlord' Shawl. This is up to row 67 - the first round of "rays" is done, the seoncd is almost closed and the third has started.

Today I finally finished off the 1st of 10 balls of yarn.

I'm interested in finding a knitting club, preferably with a few other men, in the Portland Oregon area. Can someone point me in the right direction to find such a thing?

For my sins, I've offered to knit a pair of socks for the BIL of a friend. The measurements I have been given, and I quote

I have two sisters,......hence one of two sweaters for them.

I had new software! Here are the results ! Done in Heilo yarn . This was done at 5 sts an inch. Had to scale it to keep the original graphic's intergrity .
