8th Shawl of 10-shawls-in-2010

27 repeats (one of 14 and the other of 13) of the drop to achieve the desired size (about 60cm wide and 2m long after blocking). Used needle 6.5mm for cast on and 5.5mm for knitting. In total, there are 338 “drops.” Oh my… I didn’t realize I knitted so many!

I made this scarf as a rectangular shawl for my aunt Rosangela. She wanted it in a huge size, 2m long and 60cm wide (79in x 24 in). It took me forever to knit it, but the pattern is relatively simple to memorize after the first rows.

However, whenever I did a mistake, I couldn’t fix it and had to frog a few rows.

I love the pattern, and I will surely make another one.

The pattern was a RAK from an anonymous Ravel member :o) Thank you whomever you are :o)
