Finishing

 I've been on a finishing kick this spring and I finally have some pictures to show for it


This is a shawl I started last fall called eiki by Janel Laidman.  Yarn is Classic Elite Silky Alpaca Lace, 1 ball.  I cast it on while I was on a car trip and kept it as my purse knitting until I got to the lace part. 

Then I got distracted by other knitting and put it on the back burner until a few weeks ago.

What's pretty remarkable is I think I actually followed the pattern exactly. Didn't change a thing.  Me. 
I love the juxtaposition of delicate lace with garter stitch.  It's one of my favorite shawls.

I look really unimpressed in this picture my daughter took.:
