A bit later than I thought this weekend
I finally finished the special "Baktus" shawl,
the one with the lacy side.
I got the pattern at one of my favourite yarnshops
"de Schapekop" in Nieuwpoort.
It's true that I did buy a few times on-line,
but with yarn I like it best when I can feel what I'm buying
and also colour wise I think it's much safer
Mmmmmmmm
I love these self striping yarns
( Drops Delight )
( and something different about colours : here )
The pattern was easy
and I especially like the edge of the strait side of the shawl !

Now I will have time for my "big cloth", I think,
however ...
aren't there any other things to do ...
with Sint Nicolaas and Christmas coming up ?
i made 2 of them last year. gave one for a gift and one for me. just love the variation in color here.

BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe shawl is absolutely stunning. I love the purple mixed in with the other colours. Stripy yarn is such a clever idea!
