So I started the shawl again in Artesano, knit the whole thing over three days then decided that it was still too small so thanks to a bit of advice from Snowy Wolf I went up a couple of needle sizes and started. For the third time. Not much love went into this shawl, it is fair to say; I didn’t have long to knit it, I wanted to be doing other things and I wasn’t convinced that the finished fabric was going to be drapey enough for my liking so I was knitting thinking it would never be worn.

Miraculously, when I blocked this it grew…lots. It is actually a bit longer than I needed it but I think it looks fairly fab in the end :)
