Notes

I started this pattern once before (in 2006), but frogged it. I used the Kid Silk Haze mentioned in the pattern then, but didn’t like it (much too fluffy to my taste, made me sneeze a lot). But I still like the pattern, so now I’m going to try again using this lovely Malabrigo Yarn.

3-3-2010: Cast on 75 stitches. Less than mentioned in the pattern because I’m a little bit worried that I won’t have enough yarn (just the 1 skein). And I’d rather have a long, small shawl than a short, wide one…

24-3-2010: Finished! Made only one mistake (missed some rows) but I don’t think anyone will notice… Now blocking.

Measurements after blocking: 40cm x 150cm
