A Girl Can Never Have Too Many Shawls!

When my trip to the Spring Knitting and Stitching Show had to be abandoned because of the snow, I had to do something with all the money I did not spend so I treated myself to a pattern and yarn to make a new shawl.   The purchase was made through Lusciously Loopy who was selling a special pack of yarn with a new pattern by Lisa Cook for a Cumbria Way Shawl.  The yarn was Scheepjes Stone Washed and I chose to use  Moonstone, Brown Agate and Morganite.

The pattern was made in two half hexagons which were them joined together before the border was stitched.

First half hexi finished

It was quite quick to get done – ideal if you are doing several things at once and chop and change between projects.    I love the way the tassels finish off the shawl.  I nearly didn’t put them one but I’m so glad I have.

Now I can’t wait to use it.
