Notes

not using the original pattern but this one :

very good explanations and easy to follow.

i will be knitting the edging from “gail” as i like it better than the original edging of this shawl.
the number of stitches in and between the leaves as well as the number of rows are the same, so i guess it shouldn’t be a problem.

thinking about making a test-knit of the edging with another yarn before…
it would be awful to start and than to have to go back if it doesn’t work, since the number of stitches is increasing with every row… lol

test swatch with another yarn to make sure the gail-edging really fits like i imagined.
better testing on 77 stitches instead of the 437 in my shawl just to maybe find it it doesn’t work… lol

well, now I know it works and i can start knitting the edging :)
so excited, soon it’ll be finished! ^_^

Done!
Finally off the needles.

I couldn’t knit during summer because my hands get all sweaty, so it had to wait until the temperature falls again…

This kind of bind off was new to me. But it’s super stretchy and will be great for blocking. I regret that I haven’t known this when I knitted my Echo Flowers Shawl. The edging there is not stretchy enough and doesn’t block very well…

Can’t wait to get it blocked and take pictures. blush

i hate blocking, that’s why i keep putting it off…
but it’s absolutely necessary! wink
