A triangular shawl in honest-to-goodness laceweight yarn.\u00a0 I probably didn’t block it quite aggressively enough, at least to get the points to stand out.\u00a0 Weighing in at about 3oz (800 yds of silk\/wool), it folds up very small to carry in a purse, and is still useful to add a layer of warmth when needed.<\/p>\n

As I was knitting this, there was a discussion somewhere about knitting lace in variegated yarns, and how it didn’t work well with the pattern, particularly if it was a _dark_ variegated colourway… well, I’m happy enough with this that I think I’d do it again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
