Notes

At the end of section 7 I only had 8g of yarn remaining. I got through the knitting of section 8 but didn’t have enough yarn left to bind-off and joined in another yarn.

Final weight of shawl: 100g (98g main colour, 2g for bind-off)

The Icelandic bind-off was time consuming but it looks good.

The shawl grew nicely during blocking.
