Notes: Lovely shawl,
but there's a lot of boring stockinette before you get to the
interesting part. I added beads to the edge points (4 mm bicone
Swarovski crystals). They are very subtle--as in practically invisible.
They do weight the shawl just a bit, making it hang particularly nicely.
Miriam's instructions for adding them can be found
here. I gave this away to a dear friend--what fun! She's wearing it in the picture below (and the color is truest in this one).  |
