Notes

Swallowtail Shaw by Evelyn Clark in SweetGeorgia Yarns Merino Silk Lace. Possibly Raspberry. This has been in my Ravelry queue for over 2 years now. It’s gotta be done.

Okay, I finished this a week after the Olympic Closing Ceremonies and finally blocked it on March 24, 2010.

It’s beautifully crisp and ready to be viewed at Urban Yarns right now.

I love how simple and quick this shawl was to knit. Surprisingly, the nupps weren’t terrible to knit and they end up giving the project some nice texture.
