A Shawl Complete

When agreeing to a giant project I was a little scared. I mean, what if my personal one was a fluke and this came out horribly? What if I wasn't able to finish it in a reasonable amount of time? What if I did finish it and the customer hated it? My brain, it's so terribly helpful with the panic moments.

I did it though.



I was stunned at just beautiful it came out. I'd been in love with the colors when I got them and more so with each one as I worked it into the pattern. It's one thing to see the scrunched up lace on the needles ... a whole different thing to spread it out and see the lace open up. I even went row by row to smooth out the yarn overs and keep the stitches on either side from opening too much. The colors in sunlight are beautiful and impressive.
