(Five points to whoever got the Monty Python reference.)
Although my blog posts have been few and far between (almost none, in fact) I've been doing just as much knitting as ever. I just had to take a time-out from school to post what may have been my most important FO of the year.
FO: Rose's Wedding Shawl
Pattern: Aeolian Shawl by Elizabeth Freeman
Yarn: Jade Sapphire Lacey Lamb
Needles: US 4 circ's
Other odds-n-ends: used a crap-load of mauve beads, size 8/0
Started: 08/05/09, Completed 08/20/09 ...technically ends were woven in on 10/03/09.
I am always so surprised and pleased after blocking. I swear, it is black magic.
Finally, here is a picture of the whole thing, with my fiance (!) for scale. (Don't mind the empty bookshelves in the background; we were in the middle of moving.)

I GOT THE MOVIE REFERENCE AND THATS WHY WE ARE FRIENDS!
I can vouch for how beatiful this shawl is. And Rose did wear it at her wedding!
