Notes

I bet he’d like this one.

I am so happy with how this came out! Total weight is 110 grams, and I used almost all the yarn.

When I originally spun this yarn, I had a picture in my head of doing Pippins Scarf, with at least half handspun. I had great trouble finding a good taupe (either ready made yarn, or fiber), so it sat around for ever. When I eventually found something suitable, I cast on for it. Did not like it at all. Realised I don’t wear scarves. Was sad. Swore that I would make an awesome shawl out of it some day!

This, like my Time Turner shawl, was a bit of a stupid idea at the start. I had no pattern in mind, just the standard stockinette body. It was super had getting a good pattern for the edge, but in the end I too just the tips of Fylleryd and it worked out perfectly! And again with the Haruni style crochet bind off, because it is the very best there ever was.
