BMFA Silkie Socks That Rock (I *think* it's Valkyrie.. not really sure): 1 skein

I must admit, I really didn't like working on this pattern, especially towards the end. It was just so.. boring. Seemingly endless rows of garter stitch. And I only did a shawlette! I couldn't imagine making a larger size.
When it came off the needles, I wasn't impressed. I thought it was cute but didn't have too much promise.


And then I blocked it.


It's like magic, really. I have new appreciation for this shawl, and while I still don't think I'm going to keep it for myself, I do like it more at this point.
I've had an overly stressful week, so I haven't been working on much of anything.. I pretty much was just making my way home and stuffing my face with food, then crashing. I did restart my "club" socks but no pics yet. More about that in my next post. :)
Here's hoping this coming week is better!
