And now has even been blocked too!
I initially didn't want the edges scalloped, I had in mind a straight edge. But found I couldn't open up the eyelets without putting a little pressure there, so pointiness it is! And now I find I like them very much :)
I love blocking out shawls and am always surprised by the outcome...
With this little number I didn't expect much movement at all and was in fact a little concerned it wouldn't be very wearable - too short to tie around my neck.
However, as you can see it has stretched out and blocked very nicely indeed!!
I love the eyelet ridges and think I will use them in more projects in the future. Such a simple addition but I love the effect :)
Actions shots to follow of wearing the shawlette - I think it's a little item that will get a lot of use now the weather is cooling down!!
oh! P.S I am in LUFF with KOIGU! Can hardly wait to use it again - must hunt some out somewhere and hoard it like some sort of yarn obsessed squirrelly beaver!
