FO Friday - Week 15

HOORAY its FRIDAY!!  After what has felt like a very long first week back at school, we are all looking forward to this weekend.  We are going to be doing things at the other house, but it's alright, no getting up when its still dark!

The first FO I have for you is my Saroyan scarf, which I ran out of yarn for and had to go stash diving at my friend to complete.  It definitely needs blocking but  again it will have to wait.


The second FO is the Amari Shawl, now I'm not very happy with this as I was stash busting and ran out of yarn so the lace is not as wide as I would have liked.

   

I am still busy with the Oaklet shawl and haven't made didn't do much yesterday, karma wasn't kind and I had a day from well hell and by the time I could get to knitting all I really wanted to do was climb into bed and sleep, so I did.  But have no fear I will knuckle down today and make up for it.

You know that you want to go and see the other FO's that are linked to Tami's Amis blog.  Off you go.

    I love both of your FOs! The Saroyan has been in my queue forever, but I still haven't knit it. The Amari is really pretty, and doing the stripes was a fantastic idea- I love it! I think this one may need to go in my queue.

    I love shawls. They are the best piece of clothing ever and I think everyone should wear them! I've never done stripes (cuz I'm lazy mainly!) but I love the way they look here. I think you're fine with the amount of lace. I wouldn't have thought twice about it!
    Hope you have a fabulous weekend and make all kinds of progress on your oaklet!

    Your Saroyan is looking lovely and cosy! I think there is just enough lace borden on Amari
