A Trip to the Island

 I've got another FO. The Seychelles shawl is finished.


 It went out in the sun to block. The weather has been perfect for drying things. I wish I had a clothesline.


It's hard to show how pretty this pattern is.


 It is the easiest lace shawl I have ever made-and I've made a lot.


 It looks like a very complicated pattern but it is ridiculously simple. I didn't even have to use a single stitch marker. I usually use hundreds.


 It's hard to believe this pretty little thing.....


 ....started out like this only a year ago.


It just goes to show you that little bits of spinning here and there can really add up.

  3. Wow, did I miss somewhere before that you spun the beautiful yarn as well?!? It looks good and I was giving you the eyebrow when you said it was easy, but the no stitch marker use is a pretty convincing. It looks absolutely wonderful.
