Blatherings from an amateur yarn enthusiast

The Big One

After a couple of false starts and a lot of muttering under my breath (and maybe some muttering not-so-under my breath) I finally got this sucker started tonight:

So far I love the yarn, and I think the beads are absolutely perfect. I swatched with two different beads to see which I liked better, and the other was just too silvery and ‘blingy’. Not really the look I’m going for with this shawl, but I’ll still save them for another project.

  2. You’re making good progress–that looks a bit complicated! It will probably be like your scarf, once you get into the pattern, you’ll not want to put it down!
