Alpaca Shawl











Got this gorgeous alpaca yarn at Rhinebeck. It is soooo soft.





It wants to be a shawl. With the blend of colors the pattern had to be simple but not just plain stockinette or garter. This is what I came up with

The alpaca is much finer so I'm adding repeats. I want this shawl to be large and snuggly.




Funny how lacey knitting looks like a blob until it's blocked.
