Brown sheep lambs pride.

What was your inspiration?

I wanted to make a lacy shawl. Just a big rectangle to hold around my shoulders. I had all these mill end Brown sheep Lambs Pride skeins of colors I didnt like at all. So I dyed them all then knit the shawl changing colors for every lace repeat. After I was finished I realised that I could add seams adn then I would have my arms free to do other things without having to hold together the shawl.

What are you most proud of?

the colors working with the lace pattern.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Its just a simple rectangle with seams.
