Notes

Started with 4mm needles, no idea if a bit smaller would be better or not… Maybe this is ok?

Finished! The colors are beautiful and perfect match! Just need to wash it and block it…

The shawl weights 70g, ca. 58cm x 240cm.
Blocking was a bit of a challenge because even though I tried to make a loose edge it was still a bit too tight, but I just had to block it bit by bit and block some parts 2-3 times. (I’m still trying to learn how to block properly.)

But I LOVE this, both the pattern and the yarn <3 <3
