I finished knitting the Thurmont shawl in mid-December, but wasn't able to block it until after Christmas because of lack of space. I would have been finished sooner, but just before casting off, I noticed a mistake in the garter edge, and had to drop back those stitches to fix the mistake. The yarn was the October shipment of Spirit Trail Fiberworks yarn club. Since I finished the knitting before the next one arrived, I am counting it as a win.

I started the Thurmont shawl with October's shipment of the Spirit Trail Fiberworks yarn club, Brigantia in the Elizabeth's Eyes colorway. Just finished up the first time through chart 4.
