Here we are.

it goes on...forever...

Here are pictures of Angelika. It was a fun pattern to make. I tried to chart the directions so I could work faster, but I just wasted a lot of paper instead. I worked until I ran out of yarn, so I did one less edging row, but it still peaks nicely. I enjoy chevrons.

The only thing that I don't like is the color of the yarn. This yarn is called Raspberry Heather by Knit Picks, and at the time, the picture on their site was a kind of pinkish red color, like the fruit. I got it in the mail and it's....orange. Sort of a salmon color. This would have been fine if I had been in the mood for orange, but I was in the mood for RED. Even looking at a few pictures on Ravelry of this color, the pictures came up reddish, so I thought I would be okay. Nope.

Knit Picks now describes the color as it should have: pinkish- orange. Maybe it's an heirloom raspberry color. If I sound annoyed, I am. I got used to the color, but I still don't love it. If I sound like a brat tonight, well...I can be. I am still grateful for the yarn I have.

It blocked pretty large. I could not get good pictures of the shawl flat because the wingtips fell off the edge of the bed. I didn't have a good place to lay it on the floor this time. Sort of good because the carpet leaves fuzzies on my projects. The curve of the shawl allows it to stay on your shoulders, like a Faroese shawl, but not. I would use a shawl pin on it if I had one. There are more pictures on Rav if you want to look.

One more FO pic and I'll be done playing catch up in the photo department! It's a matter of time. Oops, I forgot about the CPH. How could I forget? I can't wait to pull it out again.
