Needlework Monday: Finished Lace Shawl!
I finished the shawl! Sort of!
Ughhhh is the problem is that I didn’t have enough yarn to finish the border around the shawl.. and I was so close ;(
But dang if it doesn’t look pretty even without the border, even if I would’ve preferred it.
I used some alpaca yarn that my youth group leaders brought me from their visit to Peru! I have another ball of the same yarn but in a different color.
You could wear this or hang it up on a wall or heck, use it as a table cloth. This was my first time knitting a circular shawl and I want to do it again!
Happy Needlework Monday! ❤️
Beautiful artwork! I can imagine it displayed on strings...

The link shows a crochet artist, but your design would be so much more delicate...
WOW! That looks so cool! And thank you!!
Your shawl looks stunning @lizgore 😊 I think it's like a work of art to display... I'd be worried about spilling tea on it...
Thank you! In my house, spilling something on it would definitely be a risk 😂
That's beautiful, a wonderful piece of work.
Thank you!! 💛
It’s so Gorgeous!!! Nice knitting work...so intricate! 😍
Thank you!!
So beautifully knitted @lizgore! And it looks soft and delicate. I am imagining that it feels aaahhh when it touches the skin 😍
Thank you! And yes, it feels delicate 💛
I really admire your shawl - and your finishing it. A lace project of that size is still out of my league but perhaps one day...
Thank you! I would certainly encourage you to try something like it someday, even if it’s not today 💛
