Oh! So much to say! The shawl and daughter go together so well. Doesn't she love it?! The doorway is perfect, perfect. Okay, how many skeins, and what did you do?? You should know by now, that we want all the details. I actually have some of that very yarn! I've been waiting for the perfect thing to come along. So pretty!

So simple, but absolutely beautiful.

It looks great, as all of your knits do. I really like the deep blue. I'm not usually a fan of the color. I hope you have a couple more movies to knit along with :)

It's gorgeous! Ok. Must know. How many skeins. Is it just garter stitch?

that is beautiful! perfect for this time of year. no pattern??
knitting with anything bigger than 10's is always a challenge for me - hurts the hands!

Hello,
I am not really into shawls, but I really like this one. The blue is absolutely gorgous. Can you tell me how to do something similar? What is the stitch used?
Thank you.

The shawl is beautiful. My favorite pic is of her standing in front of the doorway. She has spunk!
