Getting on the Clapotis bandwagon

I've got 4 pair of socks on the needles, a shawl that's 80% done and a sweater in the swatch stage (say THAT three times fast!). So of course, I have to start something new. And for some time now, I've been drawn to the Clapotis - it's a shawl/scarf, which I love, and I've seen enough of them in person and pics on the Net that I'm really intrigued. Also, I've had a big bag o'yarn in stash since last fall that was going to be a slinky sweater but has decided to be my Clapotis instead. It's Red Heart Soft, in a red/gold/green variegated that Peter calls "Karma Chameleon Yarn." He's such an 80s geek, but I am too, so whatcha gonna do?

And now, since the nice people came and took the dead fridge out of our front porch (yay!), I can get at my yarn bins and dig out the Karma Chameleon Yarn. And it's a long weekend - how sweet is that? So, stay tuned for the Karma Chameleon Clapotis (now, say THAT three times fast!). And the socks, and the other shawl, and the sweater... Yeah, I've got start-itis. It's summer, the season of short attention spans. :)
