After almost a month of starts and restarts, the Alpaca Baby Shawl is finished and ready to go.
It took three attempts to reach the look I was going for. The first attempt was using US size 9 needles. The fabric was soft, yet I ran out of yarn before the blanket reached a good size. The second attempt was with US size 10.5 needles, which created a fabric that seemed too loose. Finally, I went with size 10 needles, which worked wonderfully.
Now let's hope the recipiant enjoys it. :)
