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

Seriously, this summer I WILL take some knitting classes. I can purl if I try really hard, but dropping stitches, increasing and decreasing, and pattern reading are all higher mysteries of the knitting cult to which I have not yet been initiated.
