Tonight I am working on a one of a kind shawl for myself. With the work I did tonight, I have enough of the next section done to show off a little bit of the silk. The orange and green silk work well together. The orange and green combination helps bring out the color of the gold Llama yarn.
You might have noticed that I filled in the corners using some of the techniques that I learned in the Tunisian hat class. I have still not finished that hat yet. I am getting closer. I just have to be at full spoons to work on that project.
Since I am giving myself some grace, I will not be writing a pattern for this shawl for many reasons. The first being that I have not kept notes on the project as I have been working on it. The second being that this is a stash dive project, all the yarn in the project has been discontinued. Third, I just don’t have the spoons to do the hours of back end work to get a pattern out. Forth and foremost is that I wants one of a kind pice of wearable art that no one expect me has. This is the artist in me speaking out. Last but not least is that I am using some of the most expensive yarn in my stash for this project. I am at least $150 USD in and I am only halfway through. I like to make my patterns affordable and this one is in the I am not affordable for the majority of knitters.
So it’s time to take a peak.
