And then I knit a shawl in a week!

It's being blocked - hence the ugly brown towel.
It came out pretty well! The pattern led me to believe that it would take more yardage and thus have more of the grey at the end, but I like the way the colors ended up. You can't see it in this photo, but the edge also has wee tiny beads.
I've really enjoyed this project - knitting complicated things is fun, and lace is nice because you don't need extra tools, as you sometimes do with cabling. And I can always use more shawls.
I may start another one tomorrow, to be honest.

Date: 2020-04-26 03:39 pm (UTC)I am always reluctant to attach any sort of price to my knitting (there's really no good way to do so) but I like to give it away as gifts sometimes. If you don't mind waiting a while for me to buy yarn and knit it up, I would be happy to make you one and consider it a belated birthday present. 8)
This is the yarn I used - mine's in the Beach House colorway. Do any of those appeal to you?

Thank you so, so, so much!!!! <3<3<3
