Here's a closer shot of the pattern stitch. It is pretty lumpy right now, but I'm hoping it will smooth out when blocked. I really like this pattern and may try it again in lace weight yarn and smaller needles.

Here's a photo of the Candle Flame Shawl draped over the back of a chair. This has taken 4 full skeins of Peace Fleece on size 10.5 US needles. One pattern repeat and the border should require 1 more skein.

While waiting for more yarn to arrive for the Candle Flame shawl, I've started a simple seed stitch blanket for the Critter Knitters Knit-a-thon. I will also be making extras for my local animal shelter. I have done almost no knitting this weekend--lots of updating for the Orchids site. I'm also just about finished with a mini altered book for a swap. Look for photos in a few days.
