Martha Shawl, Ishbel, Lace Edged Head Hugger, and Socks

The Martha Shawl is done! Gave it to her Sunday.
I thought I would work on my shawl the Ishbel, but I obviously got side tracked by Chelsea at work! (see "I stand in awe...." post below)
I also have to say that I like God's little pushes that he gives me. All day yesterday I had little moments when I thought "yippie I get to go home and knit on MY Ishbel! I am only 4 short rows away from starting the lace edging! I can't wait!!!!" then, I would see Chelsea's face and think, I should make her a soft hat. She has already lost most of her hair due to the Cemo. It should be feminine and sassy and incredibly soft! So, I cast on the hat, Lace Edged Head Hugger,  which actually meant that I had to take the Ishbel off of my circular needles and place them on a holder. Because the hat need the same size needle.... and after buying 2 other circulars that are a different size for my upcoming sock class, two skeins of yarn for said sock class, double points for Head Hugger, and yarn for HH I decided I was done with purchases... plus, now I am not tempted to work on the Ishbel instead of the Head Hugger!
So again, Thanks to God that yet again he is showing me how to put others first. Something that, in the way of knitting, I love to do! Maybe one day I will get to post a picture of my Ishbel, instead I will post the pictures that are in the pattern!

4 ply Cotton.
Navy to Silver color changing. One is wound with the Navy on the outside and one with Silver on the outside. I started with the Navy of the first ball. I am now to the second color change (meaning the yarn is now two strands of navy and two strands of he navy silver combo). Very Pretty!!

(ps. I have been administering Stanford 10 testing.... hence the double posts (and long posts!) I am sitting here watching 2nd graders take a test.... I am about to fall asleep.... if only I could KNIT!!!!)
