It started with beautiful yarn that, if you recall, I could not put down despite doctor’s orders to the contrary. Three months later, Debi’s gift of Diakeito Diamusee Fine, color 116, evolved first into damp, then blocked lace:
Then, all stretched out, it dried overnight into the Forest Canopy Shoulder Shawl:
Finished dimensions: 54 x 32 inches
Needles: Addi Lace Circular, size 6 US
I made no modifications to the easy to follow pattern, which I would heartily recommend for those new to either lace or chart reading. The only thing I did was to add repeats as suggested by the designer, since I was using fingering rather than the sport weight yarn called for in the pattern.
Oh your shawl is beautiful! 🙂
Absolutely gorgeous! I must add this to my list of to dos…
Absoluting remarkable!!
Stunning. The colours work so well (and I often dislike multi-coloured lace). I hope your mother loves it!
oooh, pretty! that turned out beautifully. the yarn and pattern are a great match.
Very beautiful! Well done! I love the colors. I’ve bought this pattern, and I have about 500 yd of fingering weight merino. Do you think that will be enough?
