Notes

Saw Stephen’s own Flamboyan last Saturday (how dodgy does that sound?) during his incredibly inspiring shawl knitting workshop at Loop. I knew instantly that it would make the perfect match for my Shelter yarn (a perfect meeting of my two favourite knitting boys). But I wanted a single-colour version only. Super enjoyable knit.

Photos taken on a sunny Sunday morning straight out of bed with just a wee bit of red lipstick and a sleepy disposition. Hence why the shawl is showing the wrong side out (only just realised that when looking at the pics and then just thought what the heck…).

This has gotta be the most perfect shawl shape ever. Am going to cast on for another one with my Eco Cloud….
