Notes

A memory shawl for my dad that I’m making for my step mother in their two favourite colours This lovely Rowan yarn is mostly natural but with tiny flecks of blue.

I used the Yarn Harlot’s technique for blocking without blocking wires which worked beautifully. http://www.yarnharlot.ca/blog/archives/2005/08/23/walk_ar...

A tip for anyone planning on using Felted Tweed:
There are 18 pattern repeats in the shawl and I only needed to break into the 5th skein of yarn near the end of the 18th repeat. I reckon you could get away with 4 skeins if you settled on 17 pattern repeats.
