    About

    Going to a wedding in South Africa in October. I have the dress but need a shawl. The photo shows 2 of the patterns - the peacock’s eye and the peacock’s tail. Will update when finished. Finally got round to blocking the shawl. Looks great although wedding has been postponed until April next year so I may knit one in a slightly darker blue.

        The pattern was in a book of patterns called Romantic Lace Knitting. The challenge was being able to read the chart so I converted it.

      This is so delicate. I have a ball of this wool I bought about a year ago but I haven’t used it yet as it is so fine and I usually use thicker yarn. This is so lovely that I might get the courage to give it a go. Inspirational.
