My focus this week has mostly been on the Cwtch Shawl. It's been an absolute pleasure to work on, as the plain stocking stitch means I don't need to concentrate too much!
It's a bit scrunched up on the needle, so I can't really show you just how big it's getting! I am only five rows away from the border, having already increased the size of this section to accommodate two more heart repeats in the border chart.
It's hard to show, but I think you can just about see here the really subtle colour variation in the yarn. It sort of fades from one shade of pink to another and back again, but not so strongly that it stripes obviously. It's gorgeous.
The two stitch garter border looks fab as well. I can't wait to get to the heart border and see how that looks. I'd love to say this will be finished by next Sunday, but as we have a LRP event this weekend, I will be in a muddy, waterlogged field from Wednesday until Monday, so will most definitely not be taking this shawl with me!
It's beautiful. I can't wait to see the heart border.
ReplyDeleteIts absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to see the heart border. Sometimes the nicest projects are thos with just knitting and no concentration. The yarn is gorgeous also.
