Knitting, knitting

I'm not dead, I've just been knitting.

I'm getting closer to finished on the doll shawl. I'm trying to get a minimum of six rows finished per lunch hour, but sometimes I don't accomplish that.

I'm still working on the red/blue/maize shawl but it's so big that it takes a lot of work to make any progress. Eight rows only adds about an inch to the length, but since it's 33 inches wide it takes a while to get that much done, even though it's just plain knit, knit, knit, all the way across. It's 56 inches long. I think the gray-and-black Icelandic wool shawl is either 60 or 70 (I forget offhand), and I'd like the new shawl to be longer than that.
