Notes

Very quick knit! The stockinette body has just enough variation in the purl rows to keep it interesting but still tv-watching level.

Because I’m using lace weight, I did one extra repeat of chart 2 (total of 4 repeats)

March 5 - started chart 3

March 6 - finished chart 3

After consulting the folks at the Boo group, I decided not to change needle size since my fabric was open enough with the 4mm needles.

(very enjoyable lace pattern - just enough knit stitches on the wrong side to make it flow a bit faster than usual.)

Finished the shawl on a trip to Berlin between March 25-30. I was afraid it looked rather small but once blocked, it turned out a perfect size! I love it! Unfortunately, this one is a birthday present for my mother. Looks like I’ll have to knit another one for myself.
