What was your inspiration?

After taking Mastering Lace Shawls course I felt ready to take my knitting to the next level. Laura Nelkin is a great instructor and I knew that with her teaching I could do it.

What are you most proud of?

Understanding the beaded yarn overs. It took me quite a few tries swatching before I could knit two consecutive center back panels. I love this shawl and 'm going to be very proud to wear it.

I love the subtle color variation of the yarn paired with those beads.

Love Laura's designs. I joined her MKAL and got the kit, you should see the beads she chose for the color way I chose..they are stunning. Can't wait to start and see what it turns out to be.
