I'm not sure why it's taken me so long to get around to posting this, but I finished my Catkin. Yay! It didn't take me nearly as long as I thought it would. Mostly because I stayed up late and worked on it constantly...like some strange sort of addiction. I was almost glad when it was done, because I was worried about losing myself completely. I'm pretty sure the husband was also glad it was done. He missed me.
I actually thought as I finished it that I would give it away. I couldn't really picture myself wearing a shawl...then I realized how much I love it. I have worn it twice, already. Which is really saying something, because it's been up near 100ยบ (seriously, why does it have to get so HOT!?) lately.
I wore it for my monkey's birthday, and again when I went out to dinner with the husband for our anniversary. We had a fancy dinner and wine pairing with no monkeys attached. It was wonderful! And I looked fancy in my fancy shawl. At least I hope I did!
