Whimsical Tarot |
So while I have been quiet, I have also been industrious, and completed 3 shawls. I have been experimenting with half-circle shawls, and either I have got way quicker at knitting, or the patterns are very easy, or half-circles are quicker than triangular shawls, or there has been a rift in the space-time continuum. Or perhaps a combination of all of the above.
The Celestial Shawl, using Crazy Zauberball in the colorway 'Cloud 7'.
And the 'Slice of Autumn/Spring' Shawl, which I re-named 'A Slice of Summer' as this olive colorway of Crazy Zauberball reminds me of leaves in high summer:
And last, but certainly not least, my 'Summer Flies' made from the YarnAddict Supreme Sock Yarn (50%merino, 50% silk) in the colorway 'Dream Blue' gifted to me by my friend Steph, modelled by it's recipient, my niece on her 21st birthday:
You may remember having seen this yarn before; now it's unrecognizable as the same one. Thank goodness.
I am really pleased with all of them, and am very likely to make them again: quick, easy, pretty knits. Hop on over to Tami's Amis to see more loveliness ....
Lovely stuff - you have been busy :)

Wow! You have been busy. They are all so so lovely! Good job!
ReplyDeleteI'm still skeert of circular shawls... Yours are gorgeous! May have to keep staring at them to get my courage up to cast one on!
ReplyDeleteVery nice...I especially like the middle one...but its green, so that's to be expected....
ReplyDeleteWow, three shawls! That's VERY industrious! Your Summer Flies is especially gorgeous - what a lovely pattern and just the perfect yarn!
ReplyDeleteThey're gorgeous - all of them :)
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy. They all look lovely XD
ReplyDeleteMad shawl skillz in action - they are all wonderful! Love the first two colorways - they really match up well with the respective patterns.
ReplyDeleteThe beauty that doth flow from your needles would put to shame the very wings of the angels themselves. The Zauerball colorway is wonderful surprise for me. I don't think I'd care for most of those greens alone, but they work together so well, and the finished shawl is spectacular.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful. They turned out spectacular.
ReplyDeleteFlipping heck Viv, you certainly power through your shawls :D
ReplyDeleteThe shawls are all wonderful
ReplyDeleteWow! They are so beautiful! I'm inspired to pick up my needles again ;)
