Notes

Hand dyed, hand spun, hand knit ! I’m so handy !

The Plan :
st st body until 235sts, then 1 repeat of the lace body. Lifelines and crossed fingers, hoping I have enough handspun to finish the shawl. I can skip the optional row, and the picot bind off if necessary.

The reality

CO 3.5mm
after a few rows, switched back to the “old” increases (k2 yo …. yo k2 on WS, k2 kyk … kyk k2 on RS). I think all the YOs help keep the edge loose enough. + I hate doing mR and mL).

st st body 3.75mm 31g (80g left)
added a few random garter ridges to break the monotony.

1 repeat body lace 4mm 23g (57g left)

Transition 4.5mm 19g (38g left)

Lace border 4.5mm 18g (20g left)

last lace rows (1ws + optional row) 3g (17g left)

picot bind off 7g (10g left)

used 52 g of Miyuki 5/0 triangle Crystal AB
