Good: My NaNo order arrived, yay!

Bad: It only has the shirt and book in it, not the mug, which I just checked that I definitely paid for (and that's not mentioning the difference in shipping costs that adding the mug made. I am not very pleased. Grar. And it's not likely I'll actually get my mug, now, because they're sold out now, and anyway, I wouldn't be getting it until after NaNo, now, so what's the use?

*sulks*

Dear co-worker: perhaps you would be less freezing cold if you'd wear an entire shirt and jumper. You know, the kind that actually cover your stomach? *eyeroll*

Using my friendslist as a research tool again: any of you knitters know a nice (free) triangular shawl pattern that would work well with a sort-of-bumpy thinnish yarn? (Yeah, I know, that helps so much. It's the blue yarn in these pictures.) Also, progress on the scarf:

Did that come from cafepress ?

I odered a mug, a t-shirt and a mousepad from my favourite Enemy Territory clan trough cafepress, and the mousepad & t-shirt arrived about two weeks before the mug did. So late I had actually written to them to check what happened to it, and they promptly sent a replacement.

I have two mugs now...

Nope, not CP, the NaNo folks do the orders themselves. :/

The most recent Magknits has these three shawl options: http://www.magknits.com/Oct05/patterns/shawls.htm

She also gives the basic bottom-up shawl pattern at the end so if you find a lace pattern you like, you can incorporate it yourself.

Ooh, I rather like the look of that first one. *ponders*
