Oranjestad Shawl - Cast On

This is one of those crescent garter stitch shawls.  I don't usually knit with single ply yarn, but I really loved the colors in the original shawl so I tracked the yarn down and then a very nice Raveler gifted me the pattern (it was in my queue and on my wish list) as a thank you for my creating a progress tracking chart for Ambah O'Brien's Adventurer Shawl.  This is pure mindless knitting, except for the beginning and ends of rows.  I have the pattern set up in knitCompanion, complete with repeat rows - I'm getting pretty good at setting those up.

Pattern:  Oranjestad Shawl by Lavanya Patricella
Yarn:  Uschitita Merino Singles
Needle:  US 6 (4.0 mm)
