Notes

Lace is so magical! Compare the preblocked to the blocked photos! Amazing! I wasn’t to sure I liked this pattern and almost frogged it - but I’m glad I finished it! Love it!!!! The lace really is what makes this shawl, very simple but stunning! It really grew after a soak! I can’t wait until it dries!! It is just the right size and gorgeous!

Beautiful yarn! The color perfectly matches my dress. I think this will be a quick knit.

Hmmm, this may take longer than I thought. I switched to size 9 needles after 12 rows and size 10 needles after 24 rows. It still looks very small so I think I will continue on to the larger version.

Started back on this project after a long hiatus and ordered another skein since I think the lace portion will eat up more yarn than I have. Fortunately there was one skein left….

6/8/12 Finished the crochet bind off on the way to Sawmill Creek Resort where we are staying for the weekend! I’ll have to block it when we get home! Unblocked this still looks very small.
