I finally finished the shawl I've been working on! I was so close to finishing it, and then put it away for a few weeks because I'm lazy. Or because of my fear of commitment. One of those. Maybe both. I had trouble deciding what to do with the edging, until one magical day when I randomly thought ruffles would look nice. And there she was. Zoe.
The ruffle was a bit more prominent before I blocked it, which is sort of bumming me out. I'm hoping to get some test knitters to work out my pattern and take some FO pictures pre-blocking to show off the ruffle a bit more, and to maybe lend some insight in how to block it without losing as much curl from the ruffle.
If you are someone interested in test knitting this shawl for me, please get in touch! It will be a free pattern, but I would very much appreciate having a few people work through the pattern before I officially release it.
I can't wait until it cools off enough to warrant me wearing it. My car told me it was 109ºF today ... that's just evil.
