Nice. And I absolutely just love the color. I am now inspired... and maybe will do one also.

Great job and thanks for sharing.

Ditto on the photography. I still haven't completely figured out my digicam. If I took a pic that close up, you wouldn't see anything but flash! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Beautiful shawl.

Thanks everyone! I am just surprised how long it is... with fringe, the longest point reaches to the back of my knees! Is that too long? I am making another one with a base chain of 28 petals instead of 32 to that it's (hopefully) shorter. I'm only 5'3, and this shawl is too long.

Geez, I know what you mean. I made a wrap last year for my holiday party. It was REALLY long. In the end, it nearly reached my feet (I'm 5'1" on a good day). It simply swallowed me. I made it with that Joann Sensations Angel Hair yarn. Impossible to frog. It's now another van blanket. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for the compliments everyone... I like the ones that others have made, too. Anyhow, I was wondering...aside from the obvious way to wear this shawl, over your shoulders, (duh), what kind of clothing do you wear this with? Can you post a sample outfit? I have seen jeans + tank top, and one with a skirt, and that's about it. Any suggestions? I'm not really good with fashion, and I'd hate to wear it and have it look like it doesn't fit what I'm wearing. Thanks!
