Rainforest Retreat Shawl

I made this for Aunty Riitta

    About

    This was a Fun and Fast Project. I made this for my aunty Riitta as a "bribe" . We had a work party at my Grannies place and because of my poor ankle I could´t participate other than making snacks and offering cold drinks (It was a VERY hot day).
    I love Lisa´s patterns. This is 3rd pattern of hers that I´ve made so far. There´s always some kind of a twist in her designs. This time you couldn´t see the floral pattern while crocheting it and you make the increases in the beginning and in the end in the 2nd stitch. Fun, Fun, Fun. So much Fun!
    This shawl works up pretty fast. I didn´t make the tassels nor did I do the extencion. My aunty is a petite lady, and the size was spot on for her. I´m planning to make this again with an extra repeat in the future. Indigo Plane Whirl is waiting ;)

        I love Scheepjes Whirls, but this was the 1st time I used an Ombre shade. Fell in love with that Sippy Sage color. It`s beautiful green, all the green shades in that cake reminds me of my late Mom. The shades of green in it were all her favorite colors.
        And my aunts fav color is also green, so win win :)
