I went over to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.onefineyarn.com\/\">One Fine Yarn<\/a> and looked at the Misti lace weight alpaca that the pattern calls for, and it&#8217;s gorgeous.

Bendigo Wool Mills in Victoria has 200g 2 ply lace weight merino for $AU10.50, and if I spend over $30, I get free postage. So I got some new stuff from there too \ud83d\ude09<br \/>\nI got a nice baby pink for the shawl.<br \/>\nI must admit that I remained undecided about it for ages, but decided on the wool, but I am still unsure I made the right decision.
