Getting my Groove Back

I have mentioned in past posts that I seemed to have lost my knitting MoJo this summer. Well, folks I think it may have returned. I found a shawl I really like and with a wedding coming up next month I thought I'd give it a shot.

It is Versallies by Dominique Trad. I am knitting mine in a silvery grey since the dress I plan on wearing is a dark navy blue. I started knitting it using the needles required, but just didn't like the tension of the stitches, so I took it apart and have restarted using smaller needles and knitting the larger size (the pattern is written for a small or large shawl). I am holding my breath hoping when it is complete that it is large enough; I truly don't want something so long that it would take away from my dress, but I want it to be long enough to keep the chill off my sleeveless arms. We will soon find out!

I promise to post a picture whether it works out in my favor or not....it is only knitting!
