Clue 5 & 6

I'm soo behind on Spring Shawl Surprice still knitting on clue 7 when I should be knitting on clue 10!!! It will be more of a summer shawl then a spring one but that's ok with me. This is clues 5 & 6:

We have sort of a love-hate relationship this shawl and I. The pattern is great and quite a challenge for me but I like a challenge now and then. My problem is my yarn choise (Merino from Warp&Weft). It knits up lovely but it is so slippery so if I drop a stitch it runs several rows down at once - just like silk. So I've spent a lot, and I mean A LOT, of time tinking back trying to save dropped stitches. If I ever use this yarn agin I'll definetly knit with bamboo needles that are not as slippery as my Addis.

Next time I'll tell you all about my trip to Stockholm and Syfestivalen. Until then - have a nice weekend!
