(Note to self: while the blocking mats are awesome for blocking, they are not the most attractive background for knitting photography.)
So here it is, in pile form, ready to be delivered to the bride. (It did grow and open up quite a bit — ahh, the magic of blocking — but there was no way I was going to try to photograph that in the mirror BEFORE pouring my coffee this morning.)
Thanks for all of the encouragement this month, with this shawl and with lace knitting in general! I’ll try to get a picture of the shawl in action this evening.
Nicely done! I’m sure she’ll love it.
Yay for finishing on time! Have fun at the wedding.
Lovely, and just in the nick of time!
So pretty! Blocking is an amazing thing.
She’s going to be thrilled with it!
So beautiful! I hope you are right now having a great time at the wedding!
