That's how it feels..Like I should be standing on the bow of a great big ship, screaming into the wind, "I'm done, it's finished, It's wonderful"!!!!!!!!
The Driftwood Victorian Shoulder Shawl
But wait a minute...That looks nothing like the color that we started with. Yes, I know. Well, you see, that color kinda went bad. I had to rip back and start over so many times, I felted it a bit. And then about 9 out of 11 repeats in....it broke. I cried. I cried to hubby. He said buy more. I did. Tada!!
Would I knit this again? Yes, but...I would buy two skeins of yarn and do a lot more repeats. When they say shoulder shawl, they mean shoulder shawl. It is wonderfully soft and light, and it floats around you. Just dreamy. But small. I was hoping to block it bigger then the 48" by 20" but I got exactly that.
