There I was, minding my own business, sleeping, when a shawl pattern decided it wanted to be knit, now. It announced that it was a lace shawl, with a certain shape, but unspecified lace pattern. I managed to convince it that we could start out without the lace, to check that I could get the shape right, and, well, this is the result. Since I wasn’t doing lace, I went to my shawl yarn stash (as opposed to the sock, hat, or weaving yarn one) and found this-it’s Pearl from Lorna’s Laces, a 51% silk and 49% bamboo blend in the color Blue Tulle. I’m very happy with this use for it!
I do actually have a rough draft of the pattern written up, so if anyone is interested in knitting it, let me know!
