    Beschreibung

    I enjoyed making my first audition shawl and it is worn most days by my friend, so I wanted to make something special for Harriet’s 90th birthday.
    I did fewer stripes in one section to keep the length manageable but didn’t like it, so I cut it and added more rows and grafted it back together. Not the easiest thing I’ve ever done with more than 200 stitches on the needles!
    Again I didn’t follow the pattern and changed sections as I went along.
    Added an icord on the neck edge - it made a softer finish

    Nadeln

    • Circular 4.00mm (US 6) 80cm

    Accessoires

    • Maschenmarkierer
    • Sticknadeln
    Andere : Felting pen and polystyrene packaging as a mat. So worried about the cotton ends unravelling I tried numerous ways of weaving in the tails, and felting the cotton to the woo/acrylic yarn seems to work very well- even if there is the occasional felted patch

        Thank you. I asked my sister in law what colours she likes and she said grey and brown! Hope it isn’t too orange for her!

        Thanks Vix . I just wish I could wear one myself but I struggle- get far too hot and in a knot!
