Happy Wednesday!
I’ve been mentioning that I started a new shawl last weekend, and I’ve been loving it! Did I mention that it is my first knitted shawl ever? I’m using a free pattern from Orange Flower Yarn called the Age of Brass and Steam. I really like how simple, yet effective, the pattern is!
And I am using the beautiful yarn that Tracy gifted me, in the Sapphire colour way, hence the name I’ve given to my shawl! I was pretty pleased to find this ‘1 ball of dk’ shawl pattern. I was a bit scared at first about not having enough yarn but now that I’ve started it, I think it will be just perfect!
I hope you’ve been having a productive week too!
Gorgeous, I really need to get into knitting! Your such an inpso, enjoy the rest of your week 🙂 xx

It’s beautiful so far! Maybe I should give this pattern a go, my knitted shawl has ground to a halt because the pattern is just too fiddly for me

This is pretty much just plain knitting, alternating knit and purl rows and there are some yarn overs for increases 🙂 It’s very relaxing!
