Notes

Finished shawl took 235g or 658 yards to do and used up 34,852 stitches. ;-)

Going to do the KAL with the Stash Knit Down Group and enter this into the Colourmart Contest. ;-)

Jun 1 - 12 CO 3 sts using Slipknot Cast On. Doing the standard M1 of lifting the bar between the stitches and knitting into the back of it. This yarn is buttery soft. Center of shawl (280 sts). 1st section done 20 rows (1,158 sts), 6 rows (936 sts), 14 rows (1,470 sts), 9 rows (1,923 sts), 11 rows (1,731 sts), 3 rows (1,044 sts), 5 rows (1,398 sts), 3 rows (603 sts), 15 rows (4,521 sts), 2 rows (450 sts), 2 rows (498 sts), 2 rows (498 sts)

Jun 17, 20, 22, 25, 26 8 rows to finish 5th segment (2,040 sts). 4 rows (2,160 sts), 2 rows (1,080 sts), 12 rows (3,516 sts), 2 rows (642 sts) to finish the 6th segment. The ruffled edging has 636 sts per row. 4 rows (2,544 sts)

Jun 28 - 30 I’m going to do a Cats Paw section on the ruffled edge for added interest and adding a bead to the centre of the “paw”. 5 rows (3,180 sts), 4 rows (2,544 sts) then a Beaded Bind Off, just over halfway through (336 sts). Finally finished (300 sts), just need to wash and block it.
