On the needles for May 17, 2013

Actually, it is off the  needles and being blocked.  The Faroese style shawl made from leftover sock yarn.  My gauge is way off, but it still made a fair size shawl. I must knit really, really tight.  So, the shawl is finished, just in time for 80 degree weather, but it will be waiting when the winter chill returns.

I love it! Can't wait to start my own. Thanks making this, sharing the pattern and giving me a great project to use my leftover sock yarn with.

I've been using the left over sock yarn in squares for an afghan. And still there is some left over. I might have to consider a shawl.

The shawl is very nice. And you must just love that all that left over yarn has been used for something useful.
