Notes

i followed pattern and completed 7 points then, one repeat even then, decreased for 8 more points (not sure how I got a extra point but you can’t tell). Point=picot.

I didn’t have any fiberfill so I used extra yarn to fill acorn ends. Turned out fine. Love how they weight the point down and hold them in place when you wrap this around you.

I found the directions a little hard to follow on the decrease side. I have knit enough shawls to make my way through. The chart work was fun and easy.

I love this shawl. the acorn tops are my favorite. I love how they are 3-D even after blocking. Love this shawl.

First time using new blocking pins “Knitter’s Pride Knit Blockers” these are great - makes pinning much faster and more even. Might buy a second set.
