1. My hand smells of cheese. Stilton. It is distracting.

2. Joey sings. Rather beautifully. Once upon a time I used to find out this kind of thing from fans, but nowadays Lance's Twitter is the source of all the interesting news.

3. Sick of Thicke's shit? Ask Thicke hashtag goes, unsurprisingly, rather badly. Hee.

4. Apparently, Justin and Jessica both play golf. Their lives are so exciting.

5. And now for something completely different:

I finished it!



Pity about the shadow, but there is nowhere I can put it that won't be shadowed, at the moment.

It is very beautiful, although I have to admit that it is full of mistakes. I think I shall have another go at this pattern, because it is *gorgeous*. I want to do a more peacock-coloured version, rich greens and blues, and perhaps add in the beading next time as well. The pattern—the Renaissance Shawl by Anne-Lise Maigaard—is really well presented and easy to follow. It's all in charts, and I didn't find any flaws in it, only in my own knitting.

A close-up:



I have not blocked the little crocheted chains around the edge, although the pattern shows them as little open points. But I think they're pretty good as they are.

I would definitely like to have some of it! I like cotton but most cotton yarn here in Sweden is incredibly boring.
