What was your inspiration?

This is a top-down triangular shawl made to be
lovely on both sides, hence the name, which
means two sides in French. My sister, in part,
inspired me to try for a shawl that looks great
either way. I made her a shawl several years ago.
Im very pleased that she wears it almost
constantly. But, about half of the time she puts it
on, well, backwards. So, I wanted to make a
shawl that would work either way.
Do you ever get 90% through a project and start
to worry that you will run out of yarn? I bought
that third skein for insurance and ended up
needing it. The final piece weighed 212 grams,
which means that I used about 12% of the third
skein.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?
