Notes

This is shawl #11 for 11 Shawls in 2011.

Decided to try and find a solution so I could finish this shawl. I had some left over yarn that was similarly dyed and the same fiber and it was the same general size. It worked out better than I thought it would even if it is was a bit bulkier. I used a size I hook to do the bind off. I really wasn’t impressed by the pattern instructions and the yarn was so eh (my own handspun but just wasn’t loving it). It is probably pretty but really not my best work all in all.

miscalculated the yardage and I ran out with just 4 rows plus the bind off left. I am considering dyeing more yarn but I might just frog it not sure yet.

I didn’t dye more and I am planning on frogging it but will make the pattern for sure again with yarn I am sure will be enough
