It's one gorgeous shawl
As you may have read, I'm getting married this month. I have a gorgeous sleeveless dress, so I needed to knit something to cover up in case it was cold. So I made an Ishbel shawl. It's gorgeous, just perfect! I am so proud of myself for knitting lace, with actual laceweight yarn! By the way, that's one off my 101 list, which I've just updated. But now back to the shawl!
The specs:
Pattern: Ishbel like mentioned, the larger size.
Needles: 3,5mm circular, not specifically designed for lace or anything.
Yarn: Malabrigo Lace in colourway "Forest", ca. 60 grams, so just over one skein!
Started in April, finished early June 2009.
Modifications: none whatsoever.
I adore this shawl and I really hope the wedding day will be suitable for wearing it!
The photos were taken at Unperfekthaus where the Essen knitting group meets. Lovely view, no?
That is so pretty! Congratulations on your big day! I'm sending a little prayer up above for perfect shawl wearing weather on your wedding day!
