Afterglow is light or radiance remaining in the sky after the sun has set.
It is a shawl again. What a surprise. ;-) What can I say, I love to knit, design and wear shawls :-) This one is bottom-up design. I am in love with the lace border :-))) It was so much fun to knit.
I have used Handmaiden Seasilk yarn for this shawl. I did not use the whole skein as I hoped. Bottom-up design starting with CO lots of sts for the border is relatively new to me and I am still learning how to figure out size/number of sts/yarn needed for that type of shawl construction. Re-knitting to a bigger size would mean starting from zero. So, even that I do not like having leftover yarn, it just will have to be as is. The shawl is a good size anyway. It is very easy to make this shawl bigger or smaller if needed. Took the shawl of the blocking pins today and I am in love ;-))) It is a nice small/medium size and drapes beautifully around the shoulders. Pictures on me will come later. I promise :-)) For now pictures on my trusty helper ;-))
My project on Ravelry can be found here.
The pattern will be available on Ravelry early April after test knitting is completed.
Happy knitting,
Diana
