    I'm a slow knitter and although this project is mostly garter stitch with a few yarn overs, I haven't made much progress in the past two days.

    Since this will be the third time I've made the pattern I know that I'll run out of knitting cable space by the time I reach the edging of the shawl.  So I brought out my two Boye needlemaster sets and started linking the cables together. These needles were my first interchangeable needles way back in the '80s and I used them for every knitting project. Today there are so many choices of interchangeable needles sets available and I own a few of them however, I usually find myself going back to the original Boye needlemaster.
