- almost done, the edging is nearing the last side- the next one, (ha!) will be half the size, a triangular version with the center knit on point
- started this again after the Paisley Long Shawl, noticed that my tension is looser, won't be frogging back the 3 rpts of edging with looser tension
- from the book Heirloom Knitting, except for the insertion it's from Barbara Walker's 2nd Treasury
The quest for an old pattern is over. I've been looking for a pattern like Anne Bruvold's Rectangular Silk Shawl .I found the pattern in this Spitzenstricken Heft 3 and bought it online from Heidi. What a wonderful surprise, she threw in another collection of old patterns, (she does that, in the past she's sent me other really old stuff, gratis.)
Thanks, Heidi. You rock!
