It's a knitting frenzy

Not able to spin because of a bad back, I'm into a knitting frenzy! I have no less than 5 active projects on the go and am giving them each a turn every time I sink back into my chair after little forays to stop my back seizing up altogether!

It is taking me several goes to update my projects on Ravelry, but I will get there and include photos.

The camel and silk sample has been navajo plyed and despite all my efforts to make it really thin, it's not really as thin as I wanted. Still, I have only used around 20grams, so will have plenty left to experiment. Quite what I will make with the 250 grms I was given as a present from the Guild I'm not sure. I would like to make a very lacy beaded shawl, but I ask myself, "Is life too short?" I will consider!
