Notes

only have two skeins of this yarn, so we’ll see how big the “shawl” ends up. I chose the Triangular shape to try first becuase a) i’ve done this shape before and b) this shape works well small, whereas circles and squares need to be a lot larger. Plan to work my way through at least a few of these shapes to learn a little about their construction and to put some serious hurt on my stash yarn which is starting to get curious glances from The Husband.

finished- may need to block (don’t know how well that will work with a bamboo blend) to make it a little bigger. it’s scarf sized.

I found another skein!! it was buried amongst the stash that keeps getting curious looks from The Husband. I think his raised eyebrows might be justified- but who cares, cuz now this “scarf” may become more of a “shawl”. hooray!

done! and used almost ALL the yarn. just need to do some light blocking. it’s a decent sized triangular scarf. :)
