Another finished object!
I enjoyed knitting the Flower Basket Shawl. I used Bendigo Wool Mills 2 ply (Laceweight) “Classic” in Rosebud. I had a 200g cone, and used around 120g, but I did 8 of the centre repeats instead of 7. The yarn was doubled, and I had to go up to a 6mm needle to get gauge.
I’m pleased with the finished item. I found the pattern easy to follow once I got into the rhythm, but it did take a while.
Stinking hot here today, we’ve been sitting in front of the fan sucking down iceblocks and avoiding all wool at all costs! 🙂
Celia sent me a RAOK today, a gift certificate for Fussy. Lots and lots of nice things over there 🙂 Thanks, Celia!
Hi there, I love your flower basket shawl! Good work! I live in Perth, we have had it cool the last few days, but Perth heats up quick. You need air conditioning, with your talent you should knit every day:-)
Very pretty. I have the pattern and one day…. I’ve been visiting you for a while and enjoy reading about you life and knitting, too.
Donna the shawl is beautiful!
You did a fabulous job and the color is yummy. Very, very nice!
You’re welcome, and I love the shawl!
