Ready to start!

Just read the questionnaire of the person I am sending a purse to in the knitted purse swap and I have some great ideas and am looking forward to getting started this week! The mystery shawl has met with distractions...got my yarn balled, picked my needles and got ready to start...couldn't find my stitch markers...but in looking for my stitch markers, I did a bunch of beading stuff that I forgot I had (and if you know me, you can see where this is going...) so I decided to organize the beading stuff and make stitch markers...I have the attention span of a flea lately!!! So, now the stitch markers are made, the yarn & needles are ready and I think I'm going to make a pot of tea and try to get clue 1 done tonight. Wish me luck!
