It's off the needles!


The sweater shawl is finished, off the needles, and is being blocked.  The wool is taking a full 24+ hours to dry!  I thought I might be able to take a picture of it this morning to illustrate how it's worn, but that will have to wait until tomorrow.

As you can see, I really "lucked out" with the second sleeve, because I had to attach a new ball of yarn to complete it.  I didn't even try to see if the color striping was going to work, I just attached the yarn as it came off the ball and hoped for the best.  Whew!!
