posted Wednesday, 15 January 2003

Faroese Shawl Class Sample: Falk yarn from Dale Of Norway.

Flower Basket Scarf: First attempt at the FB. Unknown acrylic blend yarn. Not good for blocking. I was just testing out the pattern.

Peasant Shawl: Patons Divine. Made for my niece who was in her school's Fiddler on the Roof. Her ensemble is in the Miscellaneous Gallery.

Tie One On: Sorta. Newton's Yarn Country ?. Loosely based on the pattern but some differences occured. Modeled and not.

Flower Basket Shawls 1 and 2. 1 is Arucania Alpaca in the short version. 2 is unknown wool from Dezined in the long version. Finished Summer 2006. 

As You Like It Too. DeZined yarn. April 2007. Made for my MIL

Ene's Scarf from Scarf Style. Made in Fall 2006. Misti Alpaca Sport. I love this shawl. It drapes so beautifully and provides such warmth! 

Swallowtail. My favorite shawl. Made in May 2008. Koigu in a yummy blend of grape, olive, gold and a touch of berry.  

Leah Bedeah: Icarus Shawl from Miriam Felton. Scahefer Silk Lace. Hated it. Love the FO, hated the process. May-Sept 2008. Wedding present for my niece. Doesn't she look lovely!

Perfect Pi. Started in August 2004 on my way to Stitches Midwest. Blocked Oct 2008 after I admitted I was never going to knit that lace border! It had been done for 3.5 years before I realized that border was never going to be done. Wool blend from Newton's Yarn Country, purchased at Stitches Midwest in 2001.  

As You Like It: Smooshy yarn. Finished it Nov 6th, 2008

Caryl's Kerchief. Claudia Handpaint Sport. Lovely Plum colorway. Finished this is 4 days, Jan 27th-30th. Made for my cousin who shares my birthday, Jan 9th. I know, it's late!

Lisa's Surprise Shawl. Carol's Clever Shawl pattern with Elann Highland Peruvian wool. I used her Ravelry queue and my stash queue to come up with a wonderful birthday surprise. Gifted Feb 17th, 2009. No modifications at all! Can you believe it?

Lace Fichu. Knitpicks lace yarn. Made for my niece's May 9th, 2009 wedding. Finished April 28th. Modifications, you knew there had to be something, used a 2 tog bind off in place of the crocheted one. Blocked May 4th.

Crocus Pocus. Smooshy in Lipstick Lava. Made for myself. Started May 11th, finished June 29th. I love the finished piece, but hated the pattern.
