Notes

This is a very easy pattern and so well written. So far the best instructions for any triangular shawls by far…I am also adding beads to this shawl

Wow I am almost done with this Shawl. I am looking forward to seeing how big this one will be. Did work 8 repeats and used size 6 Japanese Beads. Lots of fun working the beads in with a size 1.10mm crochet hook.
I find this is the easy way adding beads onto the project:
With your crochet hook pick up a bead so it falls to the flat area of the hook where you’re holding the hook. Take the stitch that you like to have the bead on from the needle with your crochet hook. Then pull the yarn, now on your crochet hook though the bead. So now you have the bead on the stitch you like it to be. Put that stitch with the bead back onto your left needle and knit it as the pattern requires it.
This way the bead will sit at the front of your work and will not slip to the back or between the stitches on the project. You will always see the beads nicely. Have fun very easy and you get even used to knitting with the crochet hook in your hand too as you knit along.
I am on row 14 of pattern “B” and have close to 900 stitches on my needle….wow I am really hoping this will look very nice too. So far I love it. And I hope the beads will look nice too. Not sure I added too many..Perhaps but will see.

June 6th. Casting of with crochet binding off. so far the measurement without washing etc are 110cm wide by 61cm deep

Washing and blocking it now. Now 160cm wide by 90cm deep what a great size. Love it when they get nice and big

Used 4 tubs of beads for this pattern will give a number later
see pictures later…
