Notes

This puts me in mind of fine lingerie, silk stockings, jewels glinting in candlelight, the smoky voice of a cabaret singer. Fine, open lace that leaves just a little to the imagination - a real temptress.

I adore this shawl but the large is far too wide for my taste. Next time I’d probably knit the small. Used just under 30 g 6/0 beads. The yardage is just a guess as I’m without a yarn scale at the moment.

2/18: Clue 1 finished. Increased to 211 stitches.

2/23: Clue 2 finished.

2/24: Clue 3 finished.

3/3: Finished and blocking! Pictures to come.
