Stitch by stitch
I started this shawl in early July and blogged about it here and again in September. Right now, it is roughly 26 inches long. This will be a definite wrap yourself in it shawl.
I am in love with this yarn - Sirdary Snuggly baby bamboo and the lovely silver gray color.
The pattern is from the Purl Bee There are 12 rows in each pattern repeat - half of those are lace rows, half are purl rows. I've just finished my millionth of a gazillion repeats of the pattern and - maybe - now have the hang of it.
Based on the volume of yarn consumed and left to go, I am slightly - just slightly - less than half way. I tend to knit sitting in front of the tv which isn't something I do very often so the going has been slow. It is enjoyable.
My goal remains to finish it by - or at least in - the spring!
Happy Stitching!

So lovely... who cares how long it takes to finish? You'll have a beautiful shawl to wrap around your shoulders and be snuggly warm in! Great job...
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful. I crochet and I know how long something like this takes but it is so worth it.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful lace wrap. The drape looks lovely and soft. I am sure you will have it done soon.
