Notes

UPDATE: Finally got around to making the large size! It was much more time consuming than the little guy! It’s for sale on my site. https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/248577857/mustard-lace-sh...

This was a fun, easy project. I’ve been knitting since I was seven but somehow never managed to make one of these puppies. It was a surprisingly quick and easy knit! I used this tutorial for the bind off and it turned out nice and stretchy; http://knitfreedom.com/bind-offs/best-bind-off-for-lace-f.... I’ll definitely be making one for myself in the large size eventually.

The yarn was just fantastic. I’m not one to go spending $31.50 on one skein of yarn but this stuff was calling my name and I’m glad I went for it. It’s super soft, lightweight and easy to work with. I can see myself making some fancy socks out of this yarn next Summer.

As for this magical shawl, I will be wearing it this Summer with my light dresses and into the Fall with my Leather jacket.
