Odds and Ends

I'm almost done with the Squiggle and Stripe by Stephen West. Yarn is Knit Picks Hawthorne.
This is my carry-along knit project. A simple asymmetrical shawl made with big yarn and big needles. I didn't use a pattern as this is a simple shawl design. Basically, increase one at the beginning of every right-side row, decrease one at end of right-side row, increase one at the end of every wrong-side row, slipping the last stitch with yarn in back at end of every row.
I ordered and received my new labels from Dutch Label Shop. These are perfect for finished bags and quilts when I want a label but don't want to work too hard. 
The new one (bottom) is a little bigger than the older labels. I thought they were really reasonably priced (about $0.50 each before shipping). Since it has taken me years to almost work through the other labels I'm pleased with the value. Here's to many more years of putting my mark on my makes. Someday I will design a quilt label to have printed on Spoonflower. I have yet to narrow down what I want something like that to look like.
