Damson (as yet unblocked)

It seems crazy that I didn’t even have a chance to post this one as a WIP, but I’m on a knitting roll at the moment.

I cast Damson on the day after I finished my vine yoke, and three days later I had this beautiful shawl.

It’s going to be a Christmas gift for my mother, who has blue eyes, so I think it will look great.

I used a thicker yarn (technically a DK, but I have my doubts about that) and slightly larger needles.

Obviously, as yet unblocked, as it rained all day yesterday and I knew it wouldn’t dry inside. Today, it’s already blowing a gale outside, so we’ll see if it (and vine yoke) get blocked today.

Now, I should be working on Pants’ mystery gift, but I’m itching to cast on Lorelei.
