First CO Object of the New Year!

I CO a NEW project!  Infact, it's the FIRST new project I've CO in 2012!  I'd seen many knitters/podcasters knitting the Stripe Study Shawl by Veera Valimaki and I was getting the itch to CO as well.  Then I noticed that Veera had another pattern, a sister pattern, called Different Lines.  Different Lines is a different take on the Stripe Study Shawl.  So I decided to CO Different Lines instead.  I'm knitting this shawl in Wollmeise 100% Superwash Merino in the Feldmaus colorway (that's the brown) & Three Irish Girls Adorn Sock in the Interlaken colorway (the blue/green color) on US Size 6 (4.00mm) needles.  It's a simple garter st shawl that utilizes color changes and short rows to give it an interesting shape.  When finished, it should have 14 of the contrasting color stripes (the blue/green).  I'm 6 stripes in and it's working up fast.  The pattern is super easy to memorize and it's GREAT TV knitting!
Knit On!
