My first shawl (1388 yrds)

No Gravatar

It is done (or rather it was done on Saturday, but I had to wait till I weighed it to know how much yarn I used).

That is 1388 yards of lace (according to the shipping scale at work and my l33t conversion skills).  I held the yarn double throughout, so mods, you may want to halve that.  Or not, your choice.  And feel free to give props to my mother’s awesome picture taking skills, or alternately the garden she planted that seems to make everything look good.

To celebrate, I cast on Adamas shawl start

Yes, that may be the worst picture of an Adamas shawl ever.  In my defense, I was rushing to work at the time and it’s less than an inch.  I’m on the second row of the first chart, not very far along, but I was kinda knitted out after the final push to finish the shawl.
