Curved Shawl Progress
It took a while, but I am a changed woman. I haven't suddenly become the world's speediest lace knitter, but everything seems to have fallen into place and I am at least now a relaxed lace knitter. The pre-blocked knitted fabric is uninspiring to say the least.

Brilliant :) you should be very proud of yourself. I think the very word 'lace' frightens folks at times but its all about reading the charts and taking a step at a time. Congratulations :)
The pattern of my cardi came with the wool that I bought from Shilasdair . Mail me at tussockhoppersAThotmailDOTcom if you want more info :)
Your shawl is lovely.
it's looking lovely....
Relaxed lace knitter sounds likt the best sort of lace knitter to be.
Its looking lovely! I need to learn some relaxation techniques when knitting lace, although my lace mojo has gone for the moment as I'm in a sock frenzy.
Fab lace knitting! The colour is gorgeous. It is nice to relax into a knit isn't it, well done!
wow, that's looking brilliant. I really do like the pattern/colour combination.
