About a month ago, I completed the Perfect Pie Shawl from Weekend Knitting. I loved the pattern!! I knit it with the so-called “mistake” but I like how the loops came out. The mistake in the pattern was that it had you knit the loops thru a different way than normal. Fine by me. Worked out great.
I used Schaeffer Anne for the body and Blue Sky Alpacas Alpaca & Silk in plum for the Picot edging. I had almost the ENTIRE skein of Alpaca & Silk leftover so I get to make a nice lacey scarf with that.

I LOVE it. The Plum is so on point and enhances it quite nicely.
Hope to see it up close and in person.
The Shawl is beautiful and I love the color. Thanks for the link to the patterns.
Beautiful!!! I love it as a hip scarf – it looks so sassy. Nice work! Now you’re good and broken in…..whatcha gonna do from the Victorian Lace book??
