It's not blocked yet, but it is knitted! Yes, here's my shawl. It is currently rather small, but we'll see how it turns out once I block it tomorrow or Sunday. All the beads (that border is solid bead, just about) make it hang nicely, so I don't think it will fall off a lot when I am wearing it. A good thing. And I am glad it isn't TOO long, so whatever dress I find will show! I am soooo happy with this. Well, that and having some positive job news today--no offer but two very positive signs. I think I'll just stick in more shawl photos now.
First, here the shawl rests on some big-ass plant in my front yard. The color is more accurate in this photo.
Next is a close-up, so you can really see the beads. The sun is hitting them, so some are extra shiny. I hope it's OK to put in so many photos. I am just happy to have the shawl.
It's beautiful! And of course you are allowed to put up so m any pictures, it's your blog and your wonderful wedding shawl!!
