Slow progress, as per, but it'll do.

On the left is the start of my Big Damn Heroes shawl, honestly not sure if I've posted this here yet but it's been at least a couple of weeks since cast-on which should tell you all you need to know about rate of completion ๐Ÿ˜…

Definitely requires a bit more concentration than I've been able to give lately, so I just keep defaulting to the socks instead.

Speaking of, that's the second sock of a pair using the Show Off Stranded pattern.

The weird heel construction (knit the gusset along with the heel flap) resulted in a slightly different fit than I'm used to, but I think it feels ok. Will only really know once I'm wearing them as a pair, so fingers crossed, but the yarn is so happy right now I don't care about the perfect fit ๐Ÿ˜„

What's everyone else been up to? Feel free to humiliate me with your productivity levels, I don't mind at all...

It's such pretty yarn I'm almost not even scared of this ray for once! ๐Ÿ˜„

What was that quote that used to be the default on new Tumblr blogs? "It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop"? That's us, we got this. I believe in your grocery bag!
