Logged in and ready to start

Just checking in here and saying that I've got all the materials except the coilless safety pins.

For the record I will be making Shoalwater using Conjoined Creations Pastimes Music Collection, 8 track colourway, which is a laceweight soy silk I bought on Ebay.

I have already experienced some of that meditative repetitive trance like activity which I expect knitting this shawl to be (because of three "plain" rows to one "worked" row in the pattern) when winding one skein of yarn into a ball ...

I have some long train journeys coming up and so want to get this started to take with me (plus, of course, the ubiquitous pair of socks!).
