I finished up Clue 4 on Sunday and the final clue on Tuesday and just took it off the blocking pads tonight when I got home from work. Unfortunately we're entering the time of the year when it is hard for me to get good photos during the week so I didn't get a shot of the shawl blocking. It is supposed to be a semi-circular shawl, but I couldn't get the top edge to be straight. Both sides of the shawls sloped away from the straight line after the stockinette section, where the lace section started. The shape actually looked more like a shelf lichen. I'm going to make a second shawl and I'm going to add repeats of the lace section to try to take care of that. It means I will use more yarn so I will play with the color changes to use more of color A - the pearl in this picture.
