Notes

Yes, I also made my First Scarf!

Deep Purple set for my friend in Moscow: shawl (40 x 200 cm) & mittens.

Shawl: CO 80 st (5 + 70 + 5), needles 4 en 5 mm.
Mittens: CO 48 (chart is 8 st.), needles 1 en 1,5 mm.

Main shawl pattern comes from Baby Chalice blanket (free pattern) & the edges are from Gracieuse.


Ура! Я тоже связала свой Первый Шарф!
Первый, но не совсем комом (потому что я его растянула :)). Единственный (но, по-моему, - серьезный) минус: он кажется мне мрачноватым (цвет выбирала подруга, но “по монитору”, как и я, при покупке). Буду очень благодарна, если кто-нибудь подскажет мне, как его чуть-чуть осветлить!


This Deep Purple is very hard (havy?) indeed.
ps: will be very grateful to someone who knows (and would tell me) how to make this yarn a little less deep purple (I mean just lightening of the colour! no other connotations involved).
