Dragons, Silk, and Sunsets

Hello All,
I was feeling in a cheery mood today. The sky was lovely, so here's some Saturday Sky for Sandy.

Plus a gorgeous sunset from my porch~

I finished the first ball of Alpaca Silk DK on my Knit Bodice. It's a top down raglan which makes for some interesting photography. I'm really happy with the fabric & the color. I'm moving the v to be a bit higher... I'll let you know how that turns out.
Here's a front & a sleeve~

The dragon shawl is also working along. I needed to find a new way to lay out the chart. Currently the chart is about 29" across and will soon be closer to 40" wide. That's a lot of chart!
But you can really see the dragon shaping up~

This was the only light color floor in the house. The shawl isn't even close to this color. It's a much lighter & more intense red. But.. can you see the wings? Aren't they awesome?
Mine definitely will be Emerald Green out of fingering weight Merino/Tencel. I know Audra will love this one.
(for those of you who have been asking for the pattern... it is now available directly from the designer Sharon Winsauer; we should have them in the store fairly soon. I will warn you that I'm still finding typos in the pattern, nothing that you couldn't easily see and know what to do. Mostly some funny looking symbols.)
Row 215 finished.
