Designing our own shawls « »
My online Design Your Own Shawl Class started this week, and I’m having a great time!
So far, we’ve drawn out basic sketches of our shawls:
And I’ve decided on which yarn I’ll use (Cascade 109). I’m using a bulky because I want what I’m doing to show up in the class videos, and because I love the look of “blown up” big lace on big needles!
We’re currently in the process of choosing stitch patterns, swatching, and getting ready to chart our lace!

Oh, love the yarn! I have been swatching today and I think it’s turning out well. Should have pics tonight or tomorrow for the site.
I am totally loving this class so far.
I love the idea of lace in bulky wool & on big needles … you can get almost instant gratification & it’s pretty & cozy too!
