Halfway done
Here is a cheesy shot of the shawl I have been working on. I started to block it and the lovely Nece decided she just had to hang out with me. I am about halfway through the blocking. I need to stick some more pins in and then start measuring and neatening. You can't see that? Here is a corner shot and you can clearly see the unpinned portion:
I need to find myself somebody that relishes the thought of breaking their back and puncturing their fingers while pinning out my lacies. Until then I am shelving the whole blocking concept for a while and will post a FO picture in gallery if and when I can at the very least get pins into every point.

Gorgeous shawl! Absolutely fabulous! What pattern is this?

The Leaf Cravat you show under "Other" in the sidebar -- is that pattern from an old Interweave Knits? How was the making of it? I was studying this pattern the other day, contemplating making it.

Oh -- now I see the March 2 entry. The leaf cravat *was* from that issue of IK, and the "snake" name is a good indicator that you didn't like it. So thanks for the warning -- guess I won't knit that one. There is a nice lace leaf scarf in Knitted Stoles and Scarves.
