Beaded Lace Shawl

Beaded Lace Shawl

Morris Empire Superwash Merino 2 ply

Knitted on 4.5mm needles. Completed Dec 2009 - working time: around 6 months.

Huge learning curve for this project. I hadn't knitted for about 20 mumble years! 

Before Blocking with string threaded along edges.

During Blocking

This was the first thing I'd ever blocked so it was pretty experimental. I used stretched string and as the shawl was rectangular it worked out okay.
