Last year, I knit the
Drachenfels shawl using some of my very favorite yarns. I used: Hedgehog Fibres Sock in Pistachio, a gift from
Jeni, leftover MadelineTosh Sock in Big Sur (
originally used in another green shawl, Daybreak), and
Moonrover Wyld in
Gillyweed (which I continue to proclaim is the bast green ever).
It was so nice to wear Drachenfels in Wisconsin this month.
The winter there has been fairly mild, but it felt nice and cold in comparison to Houston!
Every stitch of this shawl made me happy (and I have learned that shawl knitting is my favorite), although I didn't stick strictly to the pattern (partially human error, partially wanting a slightly smaller shawl).

And currently, I'm knitting the
Find your Fade shawl, in a palette that Lisa Frank would appreciate!
Beautiful shawl - beautiful you! Love the color - and the shot of you in the cold north!!
ReplyDeleteit's so lovely, and reminds me that I need to get on with knitting mine! Luckily we can rely on year-round crappy weather here ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love the green! And I love your Fade too, both are beautiful!
