Believe it or not, this shawl has less than 350 yards of luscious wool/silk yarn – details of which can be seen at my Ravelry link.

Some “man-lace” for my sister!

By llr, on September 20th, 2008%

Who knew that someone so out of shape could win a gold medal. In 16 days (I even finished a day ahead) I knit the Flirty Ruffles Shawl . It’s the first time I’ve ever knit with 100% cashmere. I’m hooked!

I’m very pleased with my skirt. It has a lovely drape and feel, and it goes well over at least two of my options.
