Finished object: Clementine shawl

Pattern: Clementine Shawlette, from Interweave Knits, Spring 2007

Yarn: Blue Sky Alpacas Alpaca Silk dk in Ruby, 3.5 skeins.

Needles: 3.5mm

Notes: I added two extra pattern repeats to make the shawl wider (I hate having a cold back!)

What you can’t see on these photos is that my hands and hair are covered in paint from spending the weekend decorating!

Clementine shawl – almost done!

Finished the knitting, just got the grafting to do. My favourite Kitchener grafting tutorial is the one on Knitty.com – it’s so clearly explained, and the photos are so great that it’s hard to go wrong with it.

Here’s the grafting I’ve done so far:

And here’s the lace pattern in detail. More on this tomorrow.
