Here we go, completed the first section of mosaic on Stephen West's Mosaic Musings shawl. Finally!

Spent most of the week knitting, tearing out, knitting again, switching needles, switching projects, more knitting and unknitting. So POW! Finally hitting on all cylinders.

Not sure about proceeding with the #Geogradient shawl MKAL, I'm having a hard time getting back in the swing of things. We'll see!

@KarenStrickholm That looks great! Almost like gold beads in the fabric.

@Pufferfish It's actually a variegated yarn, which will show up more in the later sections.

@KarenStrickholm now I understand its construction - Westie genius as usual! The edging puzzled the heck out of me in previous pictures.

@martiAn Right? It's a clever design that way!

@martiAn That was a big reason why I went to West for this WIP - I really, strongly needed a beautifully written pattern. Which it is!
