Notes

Named after my great-aunt.

Part of the January CAL Cassandra in the Lily Go Designs Group.

Jan. 19 - started - I’ve wanted to make this shawl for months - bought the yarn in May 2011!!!
Jan. 21 - on Row 28, near the end of Part 1! Pattern and chart are very easy to follow so far.
Jan. 22 - finished skein 1 in the middle of Row 29. On Row 32 now.
Jan. 26 - about 1/3 done Row 38.
Jan. 27 - finished skein 2 near the end of Row 38. Frogged about half the row to correct 2 errors, plus a couple smaller froggings… On the edging now!
Jan. 28 - finished! Sewed in ends, soaked, and it’s gently blocking right now.
Jan. 29 - blocked! I am very happy with it, but would make it bigger next time. The colour and the yarn are fantastic!!!
