Notes

The best project for holiday ever! I’ve already started a second one but this time from lace weight wool.

I used one skein of EQ wool, and 80 % of gray one. I did a slightly different version, because I started to change between two wools from the very first row. And I’m glad I did.

As many before me I did an YO on every row at the beginning and the end, which I dropped at next row. It helped to block this shawl into beautiful shape.

I really enjoyed knitting it. And I really strongly recomend to use a wool, which change it’s colours instead of three colours. It gives a wonderful effect!

I love this shawl. Although it’s a little bit itchy, so I will probably use it as a scarf in winter.

About a pattern - great construction, I had a lot of fun with it, and although endless rows it was a big surprise at the end, which kept me going! Thank you Veera!
