A while back I started this shawl . The pattern is so beautiful but uses alot of the yarn I had chosen. I wanted a one skein pattern. I think I did one pattern repeat then decided to do a traditional granny style shawl .I'm not quite sure i like it . I think it would look nicer if the lace was at the edge . At the moment once the shawl is worn the real beauty of the lacework is hidden .I think I,m going to rip it and try it again with amendments.

I've had a lovely few days away recharging my batteries with my mum and brother.A few days of R&R ,eating , the odd tipple and lots and lots of chatter.It was such a pleasure, none of the stress of everyday life, thank goodness for breaks.
