Oh My Stars

20 Apr

I think I’ll let the pictures do most of the talking on this one.

I could not be happier with how this shawl turned out.

Kauni Effektgarn 8/2, approximately 3/4 of a skein.

Started April 4th.

Finished April 19th.

Used size 2 Knitpicks Options Harmony Wood needles.

Worth every second I put into it.

Everyone needs a rainbow in their life.

    It looks AMAZING! I really love this pattern, and you chose a great yarn.

    …now I’ve got an itch for some lace.

    I love your rainbow colored shawl–is it Swallowtail pattern? Also how much yarn in Kauni did it take? I just ordered this yarn from Denmark and can’t wait to get it and start a beautiful shawl with it!!

    awesome job!! That’s a beautiful rainbow colorway. One thing tho, I think there is more blocking to be done…the YOs on the edge make lil’ points… of course its up to your prefs– but its an option.. :-)

    Started April 4, finished April 19 . . . of the same year? You knit this in TWO WEEKS? On size two needles? My mind is totally boggled. The shawl is gorgeous!
