finished object

Here is the Swallowtail Shawl from the Fall '06 (I think) Interweave Knits. Made with Morehouse Merino laceweight wool in Mermaid and trimmed with blue glass beads.



Actually, I finished it last November, but just got around to blocking it yesterday

Lovely!

very nice! are those blocking wires? I've always wondered what they look like in action.

So pretty!

Honestly, I am such a sad, sorry excuse for a knitter with my two hat patterns and a single stupid rectangle baby blanket that is just knitting and knitting and knitting and knitting.

Oh my goodness, that is GORGEOUS. I love everything about it, but most especially the colors.

Some day I have got to learn to do more than knit and purl. All I can make are scarves and blankets.

oooh, so pretty!

Wow, I'm impressed! You have such a great instinct with colors. When I (eventually) get married, I want to commission you to make a shawl for me, I love your lacework so much!

I love that pattern! It's so delicate and lacey.

wow. I don't even have words, that is so gorgeous.

Beautiful! Just the kick in the ass I need to finish up some WsIP so I can get rollin' on this shawl!

So that's how those metal blocking thingers work! Nice job, it's so purty.
