This shawl was an amazing knit, and I know that I will want to knit one up again, with another Malabrigo colorway. Absolutely enjoyable, and very quick! I only used 217 yards (one skein) and I was able to complete the entire project in two weeks. See my post, http://greenfrogknits.wordpress.com/2011/08/21/blocking-t... for more details. See the finished project and more pics at http://greenfrogknits.wordpress.com/2011/08/22/finished/

One thing I forgot to mention: this shawl does not include the garter stitch at the bottom. I love the pattern, but I did not have the yarn for that part, and I think the shawl looks better this way. Just sayin’.
