Transitions Shawl - NEB Half-Way Done!

Finally a better picture of the shawl.  I am half way done with the Never Ending Border.  I have been plugging away at it steadily during the evenings after work.  I weighed my ball of yarn before I began and was concerned about having enough yarn as I only had 16 grams left.  I did 6 repeats of the border and weighed the ball again and my suspicions were confirmed so I ripped back and did some stash diving.  Fortunately I had another skein of the same yarn in Cantaloupe so I decided to do a contrasting border.  The Cantaloupe skein was originally purchased for a Goddess Knits mystery knit along (Mystery Shawl 19, according to my notes), but obviously I never knit that shawl.

Pattern:  Transitions Shawl by Ruth Greenwald
Yarn:  PennyRose Yarns Carrie in Cucumber and Cantaloupe
Needle:  US 3 (3.25 mm)

    1. Thanks :-). I like mixing things up a bit, and there are definite advantages to having an extensive stash ;-).
