Notes

A delightful pattern to work on. If you are an intermediate knitter this piece is a breeze, easy to remember the pattern and it is a piece that one can take along as a travel knit.

The only issue I have had with this pattern is the lack of indication of sizes; one has to guess which is small, medium large, extra large etc. and there are no dimensions for each of the sizes. It is a game of chance.
I have noticed that the later patterns that have been released by the designer no longer have this issue.

Started this on May 18th and I am assuming the 165 stitches is for the med. length shawl.

My knitting mojo has waned somewhat and other projects have taken priority so this shawl has not been as fast to finish.
Knitting with the 8 ply silk has also slowed things down as one has to be more careful not to snag the strands. Mental note to self… avoid 8 ply.
