Notes

Mini Skein set is 10 x 5g of each of the colours hand dyed by The Knitting Goddess

For main body of the shawl in the undyed colours I used them as follows
Tip chart & first 2 repeats of main shawl chart in Soay/Boreray Dark original batch
3rd & 4th repeats main shawl chart in Soay/Boreray/Shet Light 2nd batch
5th repeat main shawl chart in Soay/Boreray Dark original batch
6th repeat 2016 undyed colour DUN (light)
7th & final repeat in 2016 undyed colour STAC LEE (dark)

Amounts used based on weight of 50g balls left over
Soay/Boreray Dark original batch 30.3g
Soay/Boreray/Shet Light 2nd batch 21.7g
2016 undyed colour DUN (light) 22.4g
2016 undyed colour STAC LEE (dark) 34g

Each 5g mini skein of the dyed colours was enough to knit each repeat of the lace border with a tiny bit left over. I cast off using Stac Lee.

This lace yarn is just divine to knit with. All I have to do now is block my new shawl :-)
