Notes

I like the overall shape of this shawl, it comfortably hugs the shoulders and wraps around.

Finished width: 150cm (59”)

I don’t know if I was doing something wrong but on the triple yarn over rows I’d often end up near the end of the row without a suitable number of stitches remaining on the left needle to complete the stitch sequence, but I just finished up the rows either knitting three together or doing two sets of single knits between the yarn overs on the last few stitches before the garter edge and it doesn’t seem to have affected the shape of the shawl.


Knitting notes:
4 April - The rows are getting loooong. I’m contemplating repeating one of the sections to make a taller/wider shawl.

8 April - I’ve decided that the shawl is getting wide enough so it doesn’t need a repeated section. I’ve joined in a second colour on the purl side of the second last yarn over section to provide a visual frame to the shawl :)

11 April - I brought back the main colour for rows 95, 96 and the picot bind off. Finished!
