It is nice to finally be making progress on this shawl. It has been sitting in the bottom of a project bag for too long. Even with a 40" needle I can only get the center triangle stretched out, but I am liking the colors and the beads.
It has been a while since I have worked with lace weight, there was a stretch when that was all I was knitting. I guess I go through phases. Right now I am mostly working crochet blocks, between working on my languishing projects. The blocks are quick, fun projects that satisfy my need for something new without totally derailing me from the longer duration projects like this one.
Pattern: The Little Mermaid by Janine le Cras
Yarn: The Unique Sheep Ling in Bliss
Needle: US 3 (3.25 mm)

I'm a sucker for variegated colors, so I really like the look of this one.
ReplyDeleteThanks :-), I think it is going to be pretty swell when it is done.
