sniff, sniff

Hi, I've been full of cold this week and have had to cancel both my usual evenings out and my trip to Cornwall this weekend as camping in the pouring rain would probably make things worse. I've consoled myself with a little night time knitting instead and finished my first lace shawlette.

My creation

The pattern is 198 yards of Heaven by Christy Verity.

I now have to buy a new printer before I knit anything else...expensive hobby!!

Have a great weekend everybody :-)

NB Regretfully I have had to put comment moderation back on due to a holiday company commenting on the last few posts.

I thought it looked beautiful in the 'being blocked' pic I saw earlier in the week, but it looks even more beautiful being worn! Well done. Hope you're soon over the miserable cold. x

That is a beautiful shawl, I wish I knew how to knit lace...
The colours are so warm, I feel quite envious!

Gorgeous colours which look so beautiful knitted up. Hope you get rid of your cold soon, there seems to be a particularly nasty one going around lately.

Your shawlette turned out beautifully! It's so cheery and bright! Do you mean you printed so many patterns, that you printer broke down??? :o)
Hope you are feeling better soon!
