more of my shawl
so finally its blocked and i am dying to model in it.
it weighs about 600grams and is made from pure wool by Vardhaman ( a wool company which makes great wool and is a leader here in India). its a pity that getting pure wool is a little difficult as not every one keeps it in their stores / shops. Acrylic sells more as it is easy to manage.
This is gonna be great week end. i am now starting socks. i have found some easy patterns and will start with them so that i cn knit them fast and satisfy kids and the more complex ones will come next.
i am dying to make those lovely designs i have in my hard disc!!!
gotta wait a little bit i guess

Wow, your shawl is beautiful! I'm glad you took a photo of it being worn because the wool looks so much lighter-weight.
I love the idea of using hair pins for shawl pins too. I'm going to keep a look-out for nice ones here in Australia :-)

That is one gorgeous shawl! I love the design and the wool. Great idea to make a doily into a big work of art. Sarah has some amazing patterns, doesn't she? Thanks for sharing it!
Quite an exquisite piece of work! You will be so proud to wear it -- and all the admiring looks you will get!!
Imagine a shop owner saying it won't tolerate water?? What was he thinking?? Incredible what people will tell you.

When you start socks...you become addicted. Have fun with them.
