The shawl is done, this behemoth took almost my entire king size bed in the blocking process, but it is finished and medals have been posted. I still have enough yarn left over to likely make a scarf and another smaller shawl, so win win. Unfortunately I won't finish my WIP wrestling project in time. Though I made a marathon effort yesterday, I still have 1/2 a pattern repeat and the ribbing to do. In all honesty I'll probably finish them tonight, just not in time for a second medal. Oh, well. At least after 2 years on the needles they will be done. I've also developed a wicked case of startitis since I finished the shawl and have cast on one new project and pulled the yarns and patterns for 3 more. One will be a new pattern that I will probably offer up for free, but may have to wait to post since it will be a birthday present. I'm off to the store now since I have inevitably lost the battle with myself of my desire for Ben & Jerry's Half Baked vs. wanting to be thinner.
This is one of the most beautiful shawls I have seen! The details are so intricate and perfect! Very well done!
