Notes

Test knitting for Oiyi. Fun and pretty! I selected this yarn because because the the lace pattern in the shawl reminded me of flames and, well, duh.

This took me longer to knit than is typical because I was trying really hard not to make mistakes, but I sometimes did. I blame the yarn as much as myself. It’s a weird combination of sticky and slipepry, but I think it will make a comfy spring/summer shawl.

I’m so proud of Oiyi for writting her first pattern. Exciting!
