Estonian Knitting

My first official Estonian shawl ~ Miralda's Triangular Shawl ~ from Knitted Lace of Estonia by Nancy Bush.





I used Madelinetosh Lace in 'thyme' on US6 needles and replaced the nupps with size 8 matte metallic khaki seed beeds.  I'm in love........   ~Melissa

  2. thanks, Karen & Tamra ~ I wish I could get a better picture of the shawl

    it's lack of density makes it really hard to photograph ~ it's so much better in person!
