Notes

I love this shawl and wear it all the time.

It took me a year to take pictures because I always meant to block it first. It turns out that I have been wearing it so much that I never get around to blocking it! The upside is, it probably doesn’t need blocking at this point.

I was so eager to start this that I just figured I would use the blues & greens I had around. My favourite combo is the Stormy/Clover combination at the beginning.

Ran out of Stormy so had to order more. The 2nd batch was a bit darker but worked out ok.
