Notes

USING THE PERFECT YARN! Not only is it suited wonderfully to the pattern, this yarn is an absolute joy to work with!

And the pattern is fabulous!

A fast knit and it promises to be a great shawl.
….
8/1: put this on hold so I could finish a birthday gift for a friend.
8/4: back to this project
8/7: got sidetracked with a quickie project for my daughter
8/11: back on track with the shawl. hope to finish it by mid-week, if not sooner
8/18: finished knitting. Need to block it, but have to wait until I get home from Wisconsin next week. I love it!
….
10/21: Finally blocked this. I’ve been wearing it, but it will be prettier once it’s blocked.

I love this shawl!
