Friday Finished Object

Well, it makes for a good title, but this shawl was actually finished last Saturday, after my blog entry for the day. I realized that I needed to save my mindless knitting for possible Superbowl knitting, so I pulled out something that I hadn't worked on in a while, figured out the place I was stuck, & finished it up.





Lucy seems to think I've made her a new blanket instead of a shawl. Her opinion is that anything placed in a sunny spot is fair game for sitting on.





The yarn & the pattern are from my Birthday Stash Enhancement Expedition. I used just over 3 balls of Portrait mohair. It hasn't been measured or blocked yet, but I've already worn it to a couple Superbowl Parties last Sunday. Garter stitch lace is forgiving that way. I like it the way it is now, but I'm hopefull that the pattern will be a little bit more visible after blocking.
