Notes

My birthday Cast-On :D
It is such a fun knit. Helen has made yet another lovely design!

My changes:
I followed the pattern up to the fourth clue. There I change to Colour A on rows 123-126.
I changed back to Colour B on row 127.
Then I followed the pattern to row 139.
I changed colour and knit one extra row 140. And did the bind described in the pattern directly after my row 140.

The yarn and the pattern works wonderfully well together. It holds the blocking well after using the shawl.
It is so beautiful that I also can use it when dressing up. :)

My meterage is quite low. That’s because I’m a tight knitter and the fabric was too lose when knitting with 4.5mm needles. So I stayed with 4.0mm needles as the pattern called for.
