Notes

Test thread here.

I tend to knit a little tight so I’ll use US 6.

The shawl grows in depth faster than in length, so I’ll only work 2 increase sections to make sure it is long enough to go around my shoulders.

I’m doing 3 1/2 body repeats.

6/17 Finished! I had 6.5 grams left.

6/18 Blocking.

I liked the pattern a lot. It’s written in a very clear way that is easy to follow. I’d definitely knit it again in a heavier yarn.

And speaking of yarn, I would have given this yarn a better rating if it had been the same color. The tags said both skeins came from same dye lot but they were so different. No idea how that could have happen.

Final measurements 50 in x 14 in.
