TO SOME there is nothing so urgent that it cannot be postponed in favour of a cup of tea. Such procrastination is a mystery to psychologists, who wonder why people would sabotage themselves in this way.
I simply do not understand what could possibly be more important than a cup of tea.
However speaking of procrastination I have began a finishing drive on my neglected WIPs. In the case of this beaded South Seas stole I had only about a weeks worth of knitting before it was completed. I had completely stalled with this one due to the tediousness of the edging.
Here are the panels:
I love geometric designs and I was very excited about the bottom right panel. If I was going to knit this lovely design again I think I'd make the shawl panels symmetrical and skip the bottom left panel altogether.
I used 'Posh Yarn' that I bought in Wales last year. I can see why people go so crazy for it, in fact I didn't knit this shawl in public in case I was mugged by a fundamentalist posh yarn knitter.

If I haven't had some tea or coffee, I'm in no mood to do anything else anyway! Lovely shawl.
Somthing more important than a cup of tea? Surely not...
The shawl looks fabulous. My eye was also drawn to the bottom right stitch pattern. Lovely.
I am in awe of that shawl...
How perfectly lovely, this stole, from the designs to the color. Elegant, casual or formal.
