Stonecrop :: guest post blogger Karen
Ta da! The shawl is finished and as I type this it's folded up and waiting for July and the wedding to roll around. I'm pretty sure I'll wear this shawl to my daughter's wedding, unless I change my mind. I enjoyed knitting this pattern and the challenge of following three charts at once was fun. I think that's how us knitters get our entertainment.
I would have loved to make the longer version but I had no idea if I had enough yarn or not and knitting three extra repeats only to rip them out would have made me sad. So I did the smaller one, but as you can see the small version is quite large enough!!
Ravelry notes are here and a blog post here
