Annis

I started knitting Annis while on Kangaroo Island. I loved the feel of the Malabrigo lace because it is so buttery soft and I knew it would feel great against my skin. But as the shawl progressed I realised that a variegated yarn often doesn't go well with lace.


I persevered knowing in my heart of hearts that I should stop and frog. But as you can see I carried on to the end.


The yarn is much too busy and consequently the detail of the pattern is lost.


I thought that with the large chunk of stocking stitch that I would get away with it but unfortunately I don't think so.


I console myself that the shawl feels good. You live and learn.
