Started if right after Morning Glory. I’m still on shawls, but next time will switch to something else or probably will take up a knitting and crochet projects in parallel.

I wanted to make a white shawl with transparent white beads for a long time. But this one will probably not be for me. The idea itself - white on white - is beautiful, but I don’t really wear white accessories. Maybe it’ll be a gift for Women’s day or something.

It’s taking a long time. I had to buy a crochet hook size 0.6 mm (!) to fit through the beads. My smallest one, 1 mm, wasn’t thin enough! I’m close to finishing it, but long stockinette rows are killing me.

Next time I’m taking something really lacy, that’s for sure. Though stockinette looks good in garments… but it’s so boring to knit!

I like this yarn very well. It’s soft and warm, and not itchy. I hope it’ll block well.

Finished and blocking! I wanted to make it deeper, so I added two sts every short row instead of four. In other respects I followed the description to the letter.

I like it very well but am getting ready to give it away. :-) Sometimes one has to make gifts, right? Though people never really appreciate handmade gifts, they just don’t know how long one little piece like this can take when you have a full-time job. Oh well.
