Finally Finished

This project was sleeping on Ravelry for the past three years! Yes, I began this one nearly four years ago. Its the first large lace shawl that I have ever completed. The yarn is fabulous, Camelspin from Handmaiden, and its super soft. I was a little concerned about how the color would turn out, if the lace pattern would be hard to see with all of the tone variations, but its fantastic. and close up Its Icarus, by Miriam Felton, a well written pattern. Highly recommended. It feels so good to get that one on my finished list.
Posted by Michelle at 7:59 PM Michelle - it's really stunning. Love the pattern and the color. It's so rich and vibrant. I hope to see you wearing it many times!
