March Shawl plus one

Finished my Holden Shawl on March 2 *clapping* . I must say this is a very nice pattern and something I will make again in the future. I made this one bigger since I wanted a shawl but when I decided to make another one I would like to make it in a smaller size. And since I had finish the March project early I decided to knit another shawl  well actually it was a shawlette.It was an easy knit pattern, i was just not too crazy about all the purling but it turned out cute. I use some left over yarn from a baby project . The pattern name is Little Shells, available on Ravelry as a free download . I  love Ravelry ,they have reach their 2million member Congratulations!!!!.
Here are my finished Shawls. Enjoy your day!

This is the Holden Shawl, the designer Mindy Wilkes was inspired by the waves of the Holden Beach in Northern Carolina.

 And this one is called Little Shells. They do look like little shells, don't you think?

Finally, My lace shawl is finish. I stayed until midnight on Wednesday to finish the lace edgings. It's not perfect but I think I did ok. I took a lot of pictures to get the best one since i have bad lighting in the room. Several things I have learned working on this shawl is to always have a lifeline, a lot of stitch markers, i also learned how to double decrease (DD) and more patience. I will definitely make another one of this shawl maybe in a light pink or white , i have some yarn stash that I can use. By the way the shawl is called 198 Yards of Heaven and the pattern is available in Ravelry. Most of my projects pattern was from the website and there are a lot of free patterns, I actually have only use the free patterns on all of my projects.I joined the 12dozen shawl 2012 group on Ravelry so I will be making 1 shawl for the group every month.I already Cast on the project for February Shawl last night  which is the Garden View, we choose 2 projects every month a beginner and advanced.I've chosen Beginner projects for January and February. Well without further a do here are some photos of my finish lace shawl :) Have a great weekend everyone!

Shawl/Shawlette Progress....

Okay so far I made it to the first 22 rows of lace and working on the repeats. I did not have to ripped back my work since I have place a lifeline but im still keeping it just in case.It looks wonky right now hopefully it will look better after blocking.

Happy knitting and Enjoy your weekend!!
