My knitting commute

Since casting on earlier this week, I've knitted this shrug almost exclusively while on public transportation. And, since I don't usually have a seat during my (now, much shorter) commutes, it means I've barely knitted more than a few rows here and there.

Saturday morning: at home.

This weekend, I found myself with time for more public transportation knitting while riding BART to meet Erica and Jeremy in the East Bay for ramen in Berkeley. (And, of course, while riding back.)

Saturday afternoon: a bit of progress, Lake Merritt BART station.

Even today, we ended up taking the MUNI 22 to the the Marina to return something. It's a not a quick commute so I was able to knit lots:

Sunday afternoon: heading home from the Marina, MUNI 22.

I really hope to finish this project sometime this week since I will be in Boston next week and don't want this to be my traveling project. Instead, I want to start the hadley mini crocheted bag (much smaller and more portable).

Ooh your shrug looks so pretty!

Love, love, love.....

Did you see Keri's retro redux shrug (http://knittygrittythoughts.typepad.com/knitty_gritty_thoughts/2008/02/a-fo-a-day-pola.html)? She used the same Polar Morn Malabrigo...that I found at Imagiknit! It's all one big circle...
