darchildreFinished another shawl this week - now it's blocking, so I have pictures!
(Someday, I will take a picture of a shawl while it's not being blocked, so that there aren't also random towels, but when they're being blocked the lace shows so nicely.)
This shawl was made using yarn I dyed myself - this is my avocado dye experiment. It came out a very pleasant dusty pink. I'd like to do more avocado dyeing to get some darker shades, but I'm quite pleased with this.
And a close up on the lace, so you can see the wee purple-blue beads! I love putting beads in my shawls, even if it is a pain and a half to do.
