Notes

I love everything about this shawl. But the size.

It blocked pretty much exactly to the size given on the pattern but I wish it had been bigger. I wanted one the same size as Carina’s - mine is more of a shawlette. I guess I’ll just have to knit another one ;)

The pattern is fantastically well-written.

no 5 for 10 shawls in 2010

NB: the yarn amounts are very much an estimate, as I completely forgot to weigh the skeins beforehand.
