That dragon is definitely not Puff!

Elizabeth brought in her newest project, Heere Be Dragone Shawl by Sharon Winsauer. I had so much fun shocking Mary, Robin, and Linda with all the charts. There are 10 pages of charts. The comments ran from "you know I'm not doing it" to "I'm getting chills" and "I'm feeling green". She put the pattern in a report portfolio (very clever idea). We are seriously accepting name suggestions for the dragon!

The yarn is JaggerSpun Zephyr Wool-Silk 2/18, mulberry.
At the end of the session, she had the shawl started.
Elizabeth finished the first "punctuated rib sock" by Ann Budd, featured in the book Knitting Socks with Handpainted Yarn. She is a little troubled by the creeping second sock syndrome.

She is on needle size 000. It's so thin, you can barely make it out.
Elizabeth brought in the last bear from the Ravelry bear group. Next bear she receives will be hers and we can check out all its loot!
