Shawl

No, I didn't stop knitting - or blogging for that matter - I've just been frantically trying to finish a commission for a friend - a shawl for his mother (for mother's day - oops). I just gave it to him on Tuesday and I can't wait to hear what his mother has to say about it! It was a pattern from knitty.com (great site, btw) and I knitted it in a light blue from Debbie Bliss that was a blend of silk and cotton. I didn't think it would take so long, which is why it was late, but I'm happy with the way it came out.

It's long!
