Windy day!
Made a proper shawl. I'm not much of a shawl knitter but I liked this one for its simplicity (also the fringe). It's seen a lot of wear since I finished it even though Rich teases me about looking like a granny in it. It's so soft and was knit in Hedgehog Fibres Merino Singles (Opalite), this was held double with some Orkney Angora yarn and Hedgehog Fibres Kidsilk Lace. These extra strands give the whole thing a lovely fuzzy halo - so pretty. The pattern is by Stephen West and is called Fringed.
I think I should have done something with my hair before taking these pictures! Ha ha.. And yes, it was very windy, I found the second and third photos quite funny so I've included them here.
