I'm working on Stephen West's Boneyard Shawl (with a little help from WillyG!). Since I'm still healing from a Very Bad Case of tennis/knitting elbow, I'm figuring it all out in Portuguese knitting, which means I had to figure out the M1 right and the M1 left, which I ended up doing a lifted increase to the right (and to the left). I'm using Blue Ridge Yarn's handpainted Cotton Candy, which is amazing - the real thing is just as bright and luminous as the pic. I'll post more pics when I'm done.

What an eye-popper! Lots of luck on working out a way to knit without discomfort. I have to watch myself so it doesn't flare up my wrists. Pretty good, so far, on the left hand [my dominant one] but if I knit right handed, the wrist sure lets me know it. -- Books, knitting, cats, fountain pens...Life is Good.
