The Shawl. Done.

She's done folks.  It's not quite what I was hoping for, but it's my fault on that.  A) I used the wrong yarn and B) I quit too soon and should have added about twice as many rows to get what I was looking for.  BUT, there's always next time.  :)  And there WILL be a next time for sure.

Blocking went very smoothly.  I was impressed how easy it was!  So, here we go.

Finished product, pre blocking:



Here it is pinned to my ironing board.  I knew that thing would come in handy one day.  Heh.  The shawl is too long and I couldn't do it all at once, so I did it in 3 sections.



And now.  The end result:



Ta-da!!

I've already got some ideas and patterns for my next one!
