finished through Row 158 today for fingering weight version …
used 2.12 skeins (105.5 grams)
OR
583 yards which doesn’t include a bind off row and is slightly more than pattern stated yardage needed (I did get gauge on a US 4)
……..
unblocked measurements to this point are:
40” wingspan
20.5” spine
27” each side
……..
Andrea is letting me knit a wider garter border to make this shawl a bit larger than pattern specs… I’ll post final yardage and size when I’m finished
