Mimosa Odysseia Part Two

So, I'm into my 4th day of knitting and this is how far I've gotten:
Mimosa 2
It doesn't seem much, but believe me it is, since now i have to bead only every 4th row (instead of every second) and I've gone from 599 sts to, I am guessing, about 490 sts. With every pattern repeat I decrease 10 sts so it gets less and less daunting by the row.
But I'm awfully close to finishing beads, I have some 170 left, but they disappear real quick, I just hope I get the rest of the beads from Japan on time.
Oh, by the way, I was wrong about the amount of days I have to knit this little big monster shawl - instead of 25, I have 21 days - that includes blocking it. So I'd say I have to have it done by 20th at least.

This is so lovely. I can't wait to see more pictures as it grows. Thanks for taking the time out of your brutal schedule to post them.

I really hope to meet this project in person soon! I haven't the chance to do some bead knitting (knit beading?) and am waiting for my opportunity!

BTW, your blog is one of my nominees for the Make My Day award. Go ahead and pass it on! :) see here: http://peesnkays.blogspot.com/2008/02/thank-you-yvette_20.html
