Notes

Love the Frost Flower stitch pattern and found this lovely shawl design here on Ravelry.

Made it a bit wider: ~21” wide before blocking; 24” x 66” after blocking

Adjustments:

  • CO 142, including 1 edge stitch on each side.
  • Working first and last 2 sts in Garter st.
  • Repeated Section II 4 times instead of 3 times to adjust for the additional width.
  • Added 8 more rows to the first segment of section III to balance out the intricate longer pattern section.
  • Knit in St st unit I ran out of yarn, ~26 rows for each side

Pattern is easy to memorize but not quite a tv project as you need to pay attention to where you insert your needle.

The knitting will go faster and faster as you will progress and work less and less pattern and more St st. :)

The yarn is wonderful to work with (soft, soft, soft) and the color is so deep and rich.

12/14/12: Finished knitting until I ran out of yarn with just enough left over for grafting. Grafted, blocked, ends woven in.

Love it! :)
