I really like the shawls designed by Monika Eckert and this year her work has been prolific. Unfortunately I have just not had the time to knit most of her shawl patterns. But I was determined to knit this one: Windsbraut "Magalhaes" (Ravelry link).
I'm afraid I can't tell you much about the yarn. It was part of my $10 Swap parcel and all I know is that it is pure wool 2 ply and I used 63g of the 120g. I knitted this shawl on 3.5mm needles. Like all Monika's patterns, this was very easy to follow and had I not had so many interruptions it would have been a very quick knit.

Absolutely lovely!
It is gorgeous Amanda and I love the dark blue you used too.
Beautiful work. I too like her patterns...just can't knit fast enough to keep up with her designing them. You have motivated me to start this shawl. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely, Amanda! Just lovely.
Lovely shawl, beautiful pics!
I finally took pictures of my Magelaes (or what it may be called) and put the picture in my blog. To my surprise I could post pictures again! Now I'll try to write more often. Seeing your photos made me doubt if we talked about the same shawl, though...
you're doing some amazingly beautiful lace work. I really love this one especially!
