I guess it didn't come out as bad as I had originally thought. It's still slightly felted and much smaller than it should be, but I guess it came out OK. The beautiful gold beads don't show up that well in the photos, but they look great in person!

I have more photos posted on Ravelry here: http://www.ravelry.com/projects/RitaMiller/mystery-shawl-17

  2. Thanks, Netty! It ended up much better than I originally thought it would after it got slightly felted. --Rita

  3. I hope that you find that this smaller more dense shawl will be perfect on chilly evenings in the fall or cold winter nights when you just don't want to turn up the thermostat. You did a lovely job on it, don't tell anyone of its flaws and no one will know.

  4. Thanks for the encouraging words, Patsy. I figured anyone who's not a lace knitter themselves would never know, either! LOL!
