So this is the lacy shrug I'm knitting that I found on Ravelry:
It's knit as one piece from the back bottom up over the shoulder continuing with just the right front, then you go back and do the left front. SO....imagine the sleeve extending out to your left will be folded in half with the top part being the front and the bottom piece being the back.
Do we believe this to be long-sleeved? We do not, but the company insists it is, so I'm eager to finish and see how long I can stretch that sucker.
In other knitty news, my MIL gave me an early birthday present of these 2 frilly scarves! She came over to be interviewed by Lucas for his WWII project, then we took them to lunch at Felix's on the Causeway, where she showed me how to start one of these scarves myself. (Yes, we had knitting out at the table briefly - I am not the only one obsessed with knitting, am I?)
Don't worry - we put it away before the oysters came!

I love it -- I have a drops design bookmarked on Ravelty (Celtic something) (oddly they have a store about 3 hours North of me in San Luis Obispo) -- I hear the patterns are hard to figure out so I'm interested to hear what you think!
CUTE!!! I love Felix's. I guess I really need to learn to knit.....
I will admit to having my knitting with me all the time. My kids don't blink an eye when I pull it out in public. Rachael loves the ruffled scarves & will one halfway & then ask me to finish it. I usually do since from start to finish you're looking at 2, maybe 3 hours tops!
They are! I'll expound later, but I think it will work out....
Of course you need to! What do you do while sitting at doctors offices?!
Well- trained kids! And who doesn't love a quick project?!
Um, read? And fortunately, I don't go to the doc much.

Touché!
