Notes

Going for the big size, turned out huge!!

Pattern is very well written, easy to follow.
Enjoyable knit throughout!

The yarn has a very rich color, slightly variegated with reds, purple and bits of orange in it. It kind of glows in the sunlight. Very beautiful :-)
But not easy to capture with my camera under grey winter skies.. Will try to make better pictures as soon as the sun is back.

I’m really into this shawl. So light, yet warm.
Knitting the border was done quickly, within one day.

The only thing that annoys me is that the upper side keeps rolling (rolling hems or edges can drive me crazy!) - yes, the pattern is stockinette based…
