I wonder if you could help me. i am making the shawl using your changes. Almost ready for eyelet round and miter increase round. will this be 4 rows total? And is round 1 written
correctly as *YO,K2,(YO,K2tog) to marker, YO, K2 with the repeat for the entire line ,OR, just *YO,K2 (YO, K2tog)as your repeat until you get to a marker and then do a YO,K2 after the marker? Any advice for me?

I am in stunned amazement of the beauty of your shawl. Last night, I cast on for the same shawl, using cobweb wt. Skaska Designs cashmere. Eunny is wonderful–I learned provisional CO from her instructions. Glad I found your blog–I’m inspired to keep going so that I can end up with something as lovely as what you made.

What size needles did you use for this project? I’m planning a few things using fleece artist mohair and love the stitch definition on your stole, and would love to achieve a similar effect!

I found your blog around a couple of corners. I’ve started the same stole and ran into the problem about the graft. I’ll probably do the same thing as you, keep on knitting, except I’m going all the way, the full size. Your definately look great!!

A gorgeous job. And you are a beautiful model!

A trick for frogging Kidsilk Haze: put it in the freezer for a while. It seems to glide better when very cold. And then go stitch-by-stitch, rather than pull.

This helped me in a few jams. It is better to just do right the first time with the stuff, though, I agree.

Your shawl is so beautiful, gives me hope

I’m on the process with th POW myself, and doing it out of cobweb weight yarn, Merinosilk by Grignasco, so I must do some alterations on the pattern too…. still thinking how to do it :-).

You must knit another if only to take pictures of the blocking transformation (some of us knitting ADD types need proof of more finishing necessity)

It is gorgeous true, colors, texture… Knitted lace is like wearing snowflakes I always say.

Yours is gorgeous, and reminds me that I really need to block mine. I cheated too and did not graft the centre.
