March 14 is known as Pi day. To celebrate at 3:14 this afternoon I cast on a Pi shawl in the Orkney Pi pattern.
The Orkney Pi is a KAL with the EZ as Pi Yahoo Group, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EZasPi/
I am using Lion Brand Pound of Love in the color Antique White as mine will be a blanket rather than a shawl. I used a waste yarn I-cord cast-on that I have already removed the waste yarn from and closed the hole.
I have done the first two rows of the Tree section.
I followed Bonnie's idea of adding a few extra rows as she said in message 25304 on the EZ as Pi group.
My piece is distorted by the needles not holding it perfectly round, but really is okay.
