Notes

Yarn usage is approximate as I did not weigh my skeins before starting :(

The pink shetland yarn is a 2/8’s, the purple / mauve one is a bit thinner, probably a 2/11's also a 2/8s (as written on the note from the seller).

I made some minor changes:

  • 18 repeats of the body pattern
  • When picking up the centre stitch for the border I inserted a YO to each side to avoid bulging
  • For the lace edge I had 5 extra stitches, which I could incorporate
  • JSSBO for the top edge

There was the danger of having a rounded top edge, but I managed to straighten it out with blocking.

Blocked the shawl measures 208 cm along the top edge and 99 cm along the centre spine. It weighs 161 grams.

I am pleased with the colour combo and the final result.
