Notes

I absolutely love this colour! It’s like, totally high-lighter yellow, which is the best kind of yellow (tied with awesome harvest gold). So happy I decided to keep it all for myself, my preciousssss. And the name is of course a pun on “Ziggy Stardust” by David Bowie, because I like David Bowie, and I like puns.

I followed the pattern as written, except I did 4 edge sts instead of 2 (realising 4 is my favourite for shawls). The body was very fast, but looks a little more complicated than plain stockinette. The edge was fun, and pretty too.

It’s funny, I have my awesome mutil-coloured wood shawl pin, that goes well with all my shawls. I thought bright yellow might be the end of that streak, but I was wrong! It looks good too, hooray!

Leftover ball of yarn is 18g. Finished shawl is 88g. Yarn is 500yds/113g, so about 390yds for the shawl.
