Alpaca Baby Shawl is Done!

Aug 13, 2009 13:06


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. :)



Pattern: Alpaca Baby Shawl
Yarn: JoAnn Sensations Tesoro in blue; 8.75 skeins
