Notes

Test for shyamanivas.

3/11/24: Complete! Did row 28 of border wrong due to misunderstanding the directions. I like it though, and I like the way the shawl fits - really hugs the shoulders! Finished size 42” diameter.

3/10/14: Complete through rnd 24. Blocking one section at a time; blocking makes a huge difference!

3/6/14: Complete through rnd 19, just before decreases begin. Blocked in sections, first the 4 middle “petals”, then 3 “petals” on right and finally 3 on left. 24” diameter at this stage.

3/5/14: Complete through rnd 15, steam-blocked to 18”. Because this increases then decreases I am blocking as I go. Acrylic must be stretched flat and steam-blocked into shape, and I don’t think it will be possible to get this flat once it’s complete.
